When installed, built-in Org contains .elc and .el.gz files, but not .el 
ones. When uncompressed source .el files are present in 
$prefix/share/emacs-28.2/lisp/org (gunzip --keep *.el.gz) then the Org 
ELPA package compiles without warnings and errors related to 
`org-assert-version' (There is still a single warning though that does 
not lead to later failure during loading).

It seems new .el files are ignored when built-in directory contains no 
.el files. Definitions from the built-in .elc files are used during 
compilation in such case.
