布尔表达式成语中的这个字符串文字是什么？

Question

A coworker of mine was looking through one of our inherited code bases and found the following line:

ATLASSERT( rtaddress == m_lRTAddress && "Creation settings should match FIFO" );

We don't understand what the purpose of the string literal is for; is it for more than just commenting? The way I see it, if rtaddress does NOT equal m_lRTAddress then the string will never be evaluated due to short circuiting. If rtaddress DOES equal m_lRTAddress then the string literal will be evaluated but a string literal evaluated for a boolean expression will always return true ; so what's the point?
