"I LIKE CISC BECAUSE IT IS EFFICIENT FOR THE I-CACHE"

7: 83 f8 04 cmp eax,0x4
a: 0f 9e c0 setle al
d: 0f b6 c0 movzx eax,al

HURRRR DURRRR C*dder is a retard, ARM thumb and risc-v compressed instructions are much better than this crap. I bet even MIPS can do better than this.

Try calling something that's not within 14 bits (signed) of current PC. Or something addressed via a relocation table. That's multiple 32-bit words right there, and a data-to-control dependency as well.

Cache efficiency can blow my hairy man-shaft.
