As pointed out in #972, many checks are provided by the debug options of expl3. Some time ago it was only possible to use them if the package was initially...

Some commands such as `\overset` check whether their argument is a math relation or math binary etc. This kind of thing also came up in a recent discussion about `\phantom`...

Presently `\tl_new:N \c_foo_tl` does not throw an error when `check-declarations` is active. It should.

- `\tl_sort:Nn` **changes** the order of items in the token list variable `#1` to be sorted according to the comparison given as some code `#2`. Similar commands exist for clist...
