As far as I know it is hard to determine a native language after a codebase has been compiled. Most modern day compilers have like a 3 stage process.

Missed this part earlier.
Actually no.

The decompiler or debugger can easily determine by looking for commonly used routines and procedures and how it uses the stack and heap.
So, high security portions have to be programmed using assembly and adding obfuscation loops.

That actually makes sense you can probably get a lot of information from allocation and register usage patterns.

Nothing's impossible given will enough, Emperor Willing.
Stuxnet was built using an entirely never before seen machine language which is why nothing the Iranians did could help stop stuxnet.

Aside from using analog systems, what else could they have done to prevent their system from being affected by viruses?

bro is x86 obsolete compare to ARM and RISC-V? the reason why Intel wanted it to offer as an OPEN SOURCE?

Business model is going obsolete or will be limited. Business are increasingly going towards buying ARM license or using RISC (its not actually free in the sense you still have to pay $$$ for research/consultants/designs) to create general or specialized CPU.

Would China get banned to use ARM or RISC-V ?

RISC-V purposely moved itself to a neutral country to prevent any potential banning. ARM (assuming nvdia does not aquire it) is most likely trying to find a way to circumvent another "huawei" type ban from happening in the future. At worst,as FairAndUnbiased noted, ARM China would create a separate freedom loving ARM line ;)

RISC-V is open source and Swiss now.

If accusations are to be believed, ARM China has already been totally stolen since the CEO and workers are said to no longer recognize ARM leadership and are making deals, keeping revenue, etc. completely independent of ARM.

Are they to claim ARM China as being illegal and then they can ban all products using ARM China's systems?

The U.S. govt and Intel plan to take a substantial portion of semiconductor manufacturing back to the U.S. This means Intel is going to compete head on against TSMC. Intel plan to not only manufactures its own chips but also contract manufacture for others just like what TSMC does. Intel is going after Qualcomm, a major customer of TSMC.
The weakening of TSMC can only help SMIC and SMEE.
