I believed that the only way to make `org-assert-version' effective is 
to put org version in every Org compiled .elc file, so you suggestion 
makes version check useless. An earlier idea was to put 
`org-assert-version' *definition* to a separate file keeping call in 
each file as one time workaround to ensure that `org-assert-version' is 
defined while compiling when an older Org version is loaded to Emacs < 29.

Currently I do not understand:
- Why presence of .el files in the same directory (old Org version) with 
.elc files affects result of compilation (at least for Emacs-28)?
- Why even when the `org-assert-version' macro is defined, an error is 
signaled on attempt to load a compiled file with unexpanded 
(org-assert-version) call (a file compiled with warning "the function 
‘org-assert-version’ is not known")?

Unfortunately I did not bookmarked discussions containing details 
related to straight.el issues, so I am unsure if the problems are the 
same as for installing from ELPA by package.el.
