OK, so how does any of that get easier with any other language? In what other language do SIMD instructions, floating-point edge cases, or fused multiply-add map neatly back into HLL constructs? The unwinding stuff is an even clearer example of other languages - notably those with exceptions - being further from the hardware. I was already aware of all of those things when I said "as close as you can get" and they only reinforce the point. Thanks for the help.
