A private reply by Martin made me realize that I was wrong about
stopifnot(exprs=TRUE) .
It actually works fine. I apologize. What I tried and was failed was
stopifnot(exprs=T) .
Error in exprs[[1]] : object of type 'symbol' is not subsettable

The shortcut
assert <- function(exprs) stopifnot(exprs = exprs)
mentioned in "Warning" section of the documentation similarly fails when called, for example
assert({})

About shortcut, a definition that rather works:
assert <- function(exprs) eval.parent(substitute(stopifnot(exprs = exprs)))

Looking at https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2017-May/074227.html , using sys.parent() may be not good. For example, in
f <- function() stopifnot(exprs={FALSE}, local=FALSE); f()

A revised patch (also with simpler 'cl'):

good catch - indeed!

I've started to carefully test and try the interesting nice
patch you've provided below.
