Your language may be "safe" and you may pass test vectors but reimplementing crypto is *still* a bad idea.https://twitter.com/daniel_bilar/status/946034680062730240 …

True, but the HLL implementation likely had more scrutiny (& readability), opportunity to use verification tools/formal methods, etc...
Actually, formally verifying assembler is a *lot* easier than a HLL, especially if you don't make the assumption that the HLL compiler/runtime are perfect (which is a terrible assumption, see my recent blog post ;))

Yeah, I would *love* to see more work on formally checked assembly programming tools. It's a niche area, but an extremely valuable one.
