There's nothing stopping an engineer from implementing equally inefficient data structures/algorithms in assembler as they would in a higher-level language.
...except the additional complexity of doing so? If you have to write every single instruction, you start thinking more about whether you have to write each one.
'Constant factor' is entirely irrelevant to this discussion.
