static_assert() is a compile-time check. How is it even related to this?
So, i.o.w., you are contradicting yourself in this code: on one hand you want
compile-time static checker, on the other you do not want it and rely on the
usage of the function.

Possible solutions:
1) remove static_assert() completely;
2) move it as I said.
