Those using VC++ for ARM or amd64 only have intrisics to chose from, unless they make use of MASM (or similar), as it only supports inline Assembly in x86 mode.
Burroughs (now Unisys ClearPath MCP) showed that intrisics are enough, no need for raw Assembly, so in a sense it isn't as crazy idea, and much developer friendly than the inline syntax used by GCC and clang.
