You don't have to write this, it already exists as the (unsafe of course) method Option::unwrap_unchecked

Because all Rust's methods can be called as free functions, you can literally write Option::unwrap_unchecked for the same behaviour, or you can some_option.unwrap_unchecked() (in both cases you will need to be in unsafe context for this to be allowed and should write a SAFETY comment explaining why you're sure it's correct)
