I agree with Horiguchi-san's point here: there is no real point in having these assertions, especially just after the options are processed. A few extensions in-core (or even outside core) that I know of, could call BeginCopyTo() or BeginCopyFrom(), but the option processing is the same for all.
I'm OK with not having these assertions. I have to admit they look somewhat redundant here, after what ProcessCopyOptions has done.
