This is an illuminating viewpoint. I came to Assembly from HLLs and had often wondered why i found writing assembly code so alien and difficult (in spite of understanding Computer Architecture). I was restricting myself by looking at it only through the lens of Structured Programming constructs. Only by going beyond these concepts and embracing the full generality of Assembly can one understand many techniques like Threaded Code/Self-modifying code etc.
