If you are annoyed by something innocent like i-mul-q, then check SSE and AVX.

Btw, intel syntax doesn’t have these [bdq] suffixes (uses operand typing instead) and looks more clean for simple commands like mov, mul, add, and, etc. Personally, I don’t see any reason for them to be too wordy.

Upd: it is also easier to read when operands are aligned on the same column, because values move between registers form line to line.
