>The author would have done much better if, rather than poking sticks at those who wish to forbid gotos, and posting vague and generic quotes about memes and cargo-cults, they had provided several examples of code wherein the use of gotos was a decided improvement, in terms of speed and clarity, over the best that could be done without it.

He would have only done better by doing that if his goal was to merely educate people that goto can be good too.

Which is very far from being his goal.
