That argument can be used to justify using assembly because you would sometimes have to drop down to assembly level when debugging native code.

I mentioned that. There are still programmers that do justify using assembly that way, and many historically. There are many programmers that just C/C++ over C#/Java/et al for very similar reasons.
I agree, it's not a strong argument, but it is an applicable argument to the discussion. There are trade-offs in every decision, and this is a consideration in those trade-offs.
