The assumption is the vector. Why assume?

It's more accurate to describe it as a "premise", not an assumption. It may not be true of every environment, but it's a very common norm (for instance, secrets management systems inject tokens and such through the environment).

You can reject the premise in your own environments, and then that part of 12 Factor doesn't apply to you.
