What does the comment add to the assertion?  Isn't it all obvious?  Just
wondering; if you genuinely think it isn't, I'm not going to argue.
Except about the long line, which you could easily avoid:

               assert isinstance(self.val, str)  # comment value MUST be str

>              if self.val.startswith('##'):
>                  # End of doc comment
>                  if self.val != '##':
