The code written in my company must follow the MISRA rules. Among the others, there is a rules that requires branches to have code blocks, and another one that prohibits the use of goto.

Yes, compilers have flags, coding standards can achieve the same results. The point is that this stuff is non standard, not everybody uses GCC or Clang. Stating "this code is MISRA compliant" is stronger that "this code does not produce compile warnings with the flags x, y, z on compiler W version a.b.c".

But what tool verifies that the code is MISRA compliant? Then you’re just stating “my code is MISRA compliant according to tool W version a.b.c” ;)
