For most people it's not hard to understand that code such as
machine_proc(64, 3)
is not good readable. And I had told you about well known potential
problems concerning comments, but I learned that you believe you are the
only person on this planet who is "immune" to certain mistakes.

This is not "obvious", but false and a simplistic statement.
Writing efficient code does not just mean using some machine specific
routines with comments. You might want to read the Euphoria
documentation carefully, in order to learn more about writing efficient
code.
For instance I use profile and profile_time to examine programs.
Depending on the program, there are several ways to make it more
efficient. Sometimes I write parts of a program in assembler.
