That '<' and not '<=' was there intentional.  Personally I think it needs more
investigation why that can happen.  The idea was that if two solutions exist
neither can be perfect so there have to be some ambiguous enties so there will
be '<' and not '<=' (to fit the ambiguous entries between).

But creating artifical reproducers is a bit difficult and you haven't provided
a reproducer so I cannot say anything much specific.

Personally I do not mind, it is up to the maintainers whether the goal is just
to remove the assertion or verify there aren't some other bugs causing it.
