... nothing loses time value faster than a DITM put...

Sure, especially if your PUT is 100 points in the money per your example. But the point still holds that as long as there is some time premium available in the option, there is little likelihood of assignment.

If one is holding a short PUT that is 100 points ITM, they had better want the assignment.
