goto is a footgun only if you use it to move from function to function, which btw was what "goto considered harmful" was about. That practice has disappeared, and now goto, within a function, is pretty harmless and quite identical to break/continue in fact.

Goto isn't the footgun. The footgun is if you use break/continue by accident then some unspecified bad thing will happen, silently I'm guessing.
