Again, one of these functions that ZUN *probably* wrote in ASM for shits
and giggles, which you *again could* "decompile" using in-line assembly,
but that kind of defeats the point.
Oh well, at least the fact that the parameter is passed in AL means that
the calling convention must have been __fastcall, and *that* part *does*
cleanly map to C. Unlike some of the functions in d08a7f4

Struct strLASER in uth05win… except that the member names in that one
were not only a bit too unclear, but `ageThres` and `shootAgeThres`
should have also been the other way round.
Also, yes, TH04's laser structure seems completely different.
