I have many samples of the usage of assert(0) being
"debug break, check this!, it can be an error"

if (condition1) {
   //...
}
else if (condition2) {
   //...
}
else if (condition3) {
   #warning TODO case 3 not implemented
   dbg_break("TODO case 3 not implemented");
}


if (ResourceNotAvailable())
{
    dbg_break("really unexpected");
    return -1;
}





etc
