Ну вон человек выше написал про "с регистрами все же стоит пострадать"
Из книги Ричарда Хэмминга: "FORTRAN, meaning FORmula TRANslation, was proposed by Backus and friends, and again was
opposed by almost all programmers. First, it was said it could not be done. Second. if it could be done, it
would be too wasteful of machine time and capacity. Third, even if it did work, no respectable programmer
would use it--it was only for sissies!"
