This is extremely hyperbolic, and I'm sure you know this. Here's how you set a variable in React:
const foo = 1;
What you're doing in your complicated sample is not _just_ setting a variable, you're also exposing it to a KVO subscription system that you could never represent succinctly in ASM.
What's sad is how programmers communicate programming concepts right now, with quick digs and hot takes and zero actual critical thought to what is being compared. I'm disappointed that you're spreading FUD in your internal talks.
