I agree. It's also much more efficient to fix bugs this way.
I don't use much the inline assembler anymore, but there is another great use
for it - learning assembly language! Iasm helps because you can concentrate on
learning the instructions while not being concerned about all the boilerplate
needed to create a functioning program.
The Intel assembler syntax (which DMD's iasm uses) is also much easier to read
than the syntax used by others, in large part because it matches Intel's
documentation.
