They are basically asserts that you can put in headers. Which is great because asserts are usually useless to IDEs because you only get the headers for libraries.

And with the 'observe' mode you can turn them on in production code right away and collect data without a failed assert terminating.

Those giant bucket wheel excavators are also electrically powered, by cables. And they use up to 16 MW, so I wouldn't call it completely unrealistic.

Of course running them over some dirt is easier than through possibly moving water, but still.

You'd also need to mount them facing up, pretty inconvenient when driving
