     I totally disagree. Programming low level libc functions and 
programming a full-featured web browser aren't the same kind of job at 
all and should be done in neither the same state of mind, nor the same 
language. Most probably they souldn't be done by the same kind of person.


     And it's one thing when it's a web browser and yet another when 
it's a critical software component in an airplane or a nuclear 
submarine. By chance, those are certainly not programmed in assembler or 
in C.
