I think the assert for "Supplied TextEdit[] must not overlap, and be in increasing start position order." should be an exception.

Research direction

Locate TextEdit.applyEdits in the PHP sources and inspect the assertion for overlapping or out-of-order edits. The change is complete when invalid TextEdit[] input produces an exception instead of relying on an assertion.
