Assembly is hard, because you need to understand your problem on multiple levels and get absolute zero guidance by compilers.

Even C guides you a tiny bit and takes away some of the low level details, so you have more mental capacity to actually solve your problem.

Oh, and you have a standard library. Assembly seems to involve solving everything yourself. No simple function call to truncate a string or turn a char array to uppercase.
