It only covers the whole check if `StrictMode` is not set to `false`, because that enables diagnosing down-casts for non-polymorphic types as well.

Afaik that would be a first. If there is an equivalent warning for a check, then the check can be removed I favor of the warning. In this case, I think that the check is probably going to stay, but I think that will be a question for the time when this PR is finalized/merged, as to how much the warning covers the check.
@cor3ntin with CRTP there shouldn't be virtual functions, otherwise why use CRTP, which means the record fails the check for being polymorphic.
