### Asserts
The `asserts` field is a list of restrictions consisting of argument to assert mappings.
An tuple of `(argument_identifier, assert_object[, logical_link])` is called a restriction on an argument.
All asserts within one restriction are evaluated per default with `and` logic, `or` logic can be put by specifying the `logical_link`. The `asserts` field is specified as follows:
A dictionary-type object like
```
asserts = list of (argument_identifier, list of assert_object, logical_link) tuples
argument_identifier = // target variable, can be argument of operation, or attribute in case of nesting
assert_object = {
function, // functionid to do the assert
data, // stores data specific to the chosen function
state // if this assert is statefull
function, // argument_identifier
argument, // constant value, or pointer to a dynamic value (argument of the operation, or attribute when nested)
data, // data specific to the function
}
```

Following cases must hold for a restriction:

#### `attribute_assert`
Stateless assert, only for dictionary type objects. The `attribute_to_assert` list contains restrictions that all must assert positively. Allows nesting of `attribute_assert`.
#### `logical`
Stateless assert, only for dictionary type objects. The data is a list of restrictions, `argument` defines the logical link
- `OR`: If one of the restrictions in data asserts positively
- `AND`: If ALL restrictions in data assert positively
#### Example: Nested arguments like `options`
Assume `asset_update_operation`. All attributes of its `options` must be filled on update call. This assert can not be used to realize a "may only change attribute xzy of `options`". This would require that the logic knows which of the arguments are reflected on-chain and it knows how to query it for every operation that contains `options`. If `options` are to be restricted with this assert, all values that should not change would need be fixated by defining an `any` assert for those attributes, while having e.g. a `lt` assert for the one attribute that is allowed to change.
