It would certainly be useful to use -ea.  In theory assertions should only be
triggered because of a bug or something unexpected or something that is not
handled.  In all those cases it would be good to know about the problem
anyway.

No I don't think that will be useful any more.

It looks like the splitter is going to have to look at the number of ways
or even the number of highways to deal with this without making all tiles
smaller than they need to be.
