> What do you gain by using it?

Performance, although this possibly depends on your compiler, whether you use PGO, and similar finicky issues.

Another example where goto is relevant is implementing finite automata. A (very short) paper from 1988 that discusses three different ways of implementing a finite state machine is "How (Not) to Code a Finite State Machine". The documentation of RE2C may be even more interesting: https://re2c.org

RE2C is a program that compiles finite automata into C, Go, or Rust code. It provides many implementation strategies: it can make use of computed or labelled gotos when the language provides them.

Implementing pushdown automata comes with similar issues.
