Do we have different ideas of what boilerplate is? Almost everything in assembly is boilerplate because there are no advanced, built in features. (Sure, modern x86 assembly is a complex language with many advanced builtins but they are generally meant to express solutions in the x86 domain, not the business domain.)

I stick to traditional definition.

> In computer programming, boilerplate code or boilerplate refers to sections of code that have to be included in many places with little or no alteration.
