Oh. There was a comment to your comment saying that kids learning assembly was easy and — I guess? — implying that adults-learning-assembly is hard. I teach adults assembly on an irregular basis. Adults-learning-assembly is hard because adults are rational animals who (correctly) assume I'm an idiot for insisting on assembly. Once I explain the long-term benefits for our exceedingly specific use case, they pick up assembly in a few hours. Assembly isn't hard. Assembly is annoying because it takes absolutely gobsmacking amounts of assembly to do anything.
Don't try to write "good" go and it becomes easy too.
I would rather see clearly defined, readable, documented code that isnt optimal... than good code lacking any of those traits.
And good code often isnt clearly defined, it often isn't reader friendly and it often lacks documentation (this bit is fixable but ends up needing a lot more of it).
