Correct, which implies that it's a test for something which is deemed highly
unlikely to happen in production.
 Highly improbable does not mean impossible, or that it will never happen.

Can you show an example where the hash isn't grown automatically to accomodate
this such that the assertion is tripped?
A demo won't change the fact that the function can fail, even if it isn't currently failing.
As a precaution to avoid future bugs, I think it's necessary to apply the patch to increase the robustness of the function.
