Hand-crafted assembly can be more efficent than compiler-generated one, because as a human You know better, what does the code mean, making it easier to express, ultimatly reducing size or/and increasing efficency.
... friendly.
... makes text less quack. Also, X86 assembly is more popular.

Modern compilers may do a good job, but human in most cases is able to produce better code. Also, compilers are outputting buggy code or are buggy overall in some cases.
Disadvantages code was made C89 compatible.
Programming assembly can be, but doesn't have to be frustrating. Whenever you understand it, Assembly becomes poetry.
Abstraction is not necessary, but really helpful.
Low level languages have very simple syntax making them really easy to understand. Also, I have changed examples from RISC-V to x86 as I feel it's more popular. Also, hexadecimal was used to make whole document look less quacky.
