/**
 * what: a wrapper which takes a boolean type.check and converts it into a type.assure
 * what^2:
 * - a type.check uses typescript's type.predicate capacity to narrow a type via boolean (i.e., `input is T`)
 * - a type.assure uses this type.check and throws an error if the result was false, assuring that if a result is returned, it is of the desired type
 * why:
 * - makes it easy to fail fast if expectations are not met
 * - simplifies code by rejecting code paths that should not happen, allowing focus on only the expected code paths, rather than having 'if/then' statements all over the place
 * why^2:
 * - simplicity++ -> readability++ -> speed++ && maintainability++

 * - a type.assure uses this type.check and throws an error if the result was false, assuring that if a result is returned, it is of the desired type
 * - an .assure and .assess can be added to a function, enabling backwards compatible default .assess usage while still exposing explicit .assure and .assess utilities
