You mention the tools you can use to make it happen.

I think we're at the point where you need concrete examples to talk about whether it's worth it or not. If you have functions that can't be called twice, then you have no other option to test details in the implementation like that.

Yeah there's a tradeoff between torturing your code to make everything about it testable and enforce certain behavior or keeping it simpler.

I have worked in multiple code bases where every function call had asserts on how many times it was called and what the args were.
