surely there is far less freedom in expressing the simplest version of the echo program in ASM compared to, say, C?
I'd say it's the opposite, since it is often the case that more instructions (and thus ways to select and arrange them) are required to express an operation in Asm compared to an HLL like C. This implies that there is room for more creativity when e.g. writing a "Hello world" in Asm vs. C.
