asm is gone, or should have been many years ago.
explain a simple case when you need it.
seriously?
compiling c code. can you imagine a c compiler that does not translate
to asm first? or can you imagine porting a c compiler when you dont
have an assembler? do you want to be hand coding machine code in a
compiler's code generator? i think assembler is a good compromise. its
good for compiler writers.
or would you rather have the processor and hardware designers build in
the language support in the hardware? how would you react if the
hardware designers choice of language is different from yours?
