You specifically responded to a claim that there were relatively few assembler bugs due to it be a relatively small body of code. So in that context, I would like you to show that the handful you've highlighted is "a lot" against the backdrop of bugs in non-assembly code.

My semi-informed (but not quantified) opinion is that you are broadly wrong and that there are not a lot of assembler bugs relative to C/C++ bugs.
