The ultimate reductio ad absurdum would be if we start putting machine code bytes in inline asm blocks only for compilers to eventually start "helpfully" disassembling them to perform intrinsic substitutions.

@pervognsen can't be too far… i've already had to do that when clang cleverly detected that my inline asm wasn't supported by the -march on the build line… sometimes I just don't want *the compiler* to use fancy stuff, even though it's available.

@pervognsen I was literally about to ask "what if I did .4byte ...?" 😭
