I like the inline assembly feature of D. But language features aren't 
ignorable, in real world you often meed or have to modify or fix code written 
by other people. This means that a programmer that doesn't know assembly may be 
forced to fix bugs in modules that contain functions with asm. So every 
language feature is not free, it has a cost.
