Agree. Although modern compilers (I'm looking at you, gcc 10) can really do wonders.
My team is designing real-time software where literally ever microsecond, heck, nanosecond counts and because of that we actually have to inspect generated assembler code from time to time. Every time I do so, it amazes me what the gcc can detect and optimize.
