The problem is that it’s easy to make code that is LESS readable; in order to prevent horrible unmaintainable spaghetti, it is forbidden nearly everywhere. A lot of coding ‘rules’ are really just ways to try to cut down on stupid coding practices by greenhorns and enforce code maintainability.
Goto CAN be readable, it’s true.

It’s a blessing and a curse. I’ll give you that.
