Likewise assembly abstracts over common gate arrangements and can make it
difficult to see the real stuff going on. And when this abstraction is assumed
to be atomic, it makes it difficult to see how to see potentially better
alternatives. It's easy to confuse the symbol/category/abstraction for the
thing, to confuse one useful pattern in the information for the information
itself.
