Yes, it's not exactly the same if you compile in ReleaseFast instead of ReleaseSafe. Both are bad though, and I'd tend to blame the coding pattern for the observed behavior rather than quibble about which unacceptable scenario is worse.
I see people adopting forced null unwrapping for dumb reasons all the time. For the remaining reasons, do you have a sense of what the language deficiencies are which make that feature helpful? I see it for somewhat sane reasons when crossing language boundaries. Does anything else stand out?

Yes. Thankfully ".?" is greppable, but I wouldn't mind more ceremony there, and less for `try` coding patterns.
