assertSeeInOrder does not actually assert anything

$response->assertSeeInOrder does not actually assert anything, but instead calls PHPUnit::fail() if the conditions are not met. This causes tests which only have that assertion to be reported as "risky".

public function assertSeeInOrder(array $values)
    {
        $position = 0;

        foreach ($values as $value) {
            $valuePosition = mb_strpos($this->getContent(), $value, $position);

            if ($valuePosition === false || $valuePosition < $position) {
                PHPUnit::fail(
                    'Failed asserting that \''.$this->getContent().
                    '\' contains "'.$value.'" in specified order.'
                );
            }

            $position = $valuePosition + mb_strlen($value);
        }

        return $this;
    }

// A test which only uses this assertion will be reported as "risky" by PHPUnit because of not running any assertions.
public function canViewAlbumTitleFromBandView()
    {
        $band = factory(Band::class)->create();
        $album = factory(Album::class)->create([
            'band_id' => $band->id
        ]);

        // visit the page
        $response = $this->get("/bands/$band->id");

        // assert we can see the data
        $response->assertSeeInOrder(['Albums:', $album->name]);
    }

Yes, in my case I could just write different assertions that would assert reliably, but isn't this bad practice to be including built-in custom assertions that don't actually assert anything? Shouldn't we be able to write a custom assertion class instead?
