Nonsense! Machine code is all you need. If you want
coding luxury, you can have an assembler.

Seriously, your statement is true, but it's a truth that is
misleading rather than helpful. It's like telling a gene therapy
researcher, "If you can't do it with the tools of organic
chemistry, it can't be done."

who wrote many, many programs in hex before he could afford an assembler
