I don't have to check calling sequences. I don't have to allocate local stack
space. Macros do this for me. I have to check parameter types? Flip side:
I never have to bother with typecasting. Register usage I've already admitted 
to, but it isn't a real problem.

Most of the rest I can't disagree with. I have no problem with HLLs, I just
want to point out that assembler is not so bad, and the, as you admit, the
myth that compilers generate code as efficiently as assemblers is a falacy.
