I mean, assembly is nice and all that, but we really need a way to control Minecraft CPU's out of game. Since in game higher level language's will require even more contrpations and extremely inefficient.

I have no idea if we have any ways of talking to redstone out of game, i might make a new thread for it though, seems like it requires some coding and it is a topic of its own.

I agree, higher level languages won't be feasible. The higher you go the slower it takes to complete an operation. One word of a HLL can result in hundreds of different machine code instructions. That will take ages to process and also ages to compile.

For interacting with it outside of the game I imagine it might be possible to code a mod or plugin that allows you to do that. But what could this be used for?

To take redstone out of game, simply use command blocks and a script to read their output from console. Each command block can correspond to bits in a device.
