Yes, sorry, too late to edit now but it should use an unsafe block for the assume and provide the safety rationale explaining why we're sure this is correct.

I am sympathetic to desire to make it "just work" in proportion to how much I actually see this in the wild. Large heap allocations, initialized in place in a single sweeping action. It does happen, but I don't reach for it often.

Often people say "Oh, well I will finish initializing it later but..." and now we're definitely talking about MaybeUninit 'cos if you've only half finished the Goose, that's not a Goose yet, that's a MaybeUninit<Goose> and it's crucial that we remember this or we're writing nonsense and may blow our feet off with a seemingly harmless mistake elsewhere.
