I'd expect much louder complaints if we try to free something that's not allocated - what happens if we end up reallocating something quickly and then double freeing? Better to complain if we hit such a code path.
"freed" is a block which is passed by the caller to be freed up. Will add a comment.
How would that address the problem? Obviously the caller is trying to free what they're passing in.
