The default output format of HotSpot is AT&T. The default output format of GCC is AT&T. The default output format of Clang is AT&T. Tools like the universal compiler output viewer https://gcc.godbolt.org use AT&T by default.

Intel isn't the universally accepted format you think it is. I'm a professional VM researcher and I use AT&T more often than Intel. In fact I most often see Intel when reading Intel documentation.

You're shouting about nothing more than empirical than tabs vs spaces, and even then I think your side is actually in a minority.
