How can we, the application programmers, give a thousand GOTOs to our end users in a program WHICH THEY DID NOT CREATE THEMSELVES, when we ourselves don't have the ability to navigate though a program of our own creation? If they have the ability to navigate through an unknown program, we, with better abilities than them, should have the ability to navigate though a program of our own creation.
Because we do not. Every action by the user, either at the command line or even at the gui, is more akin to a function or procedure call than to a lowly goto. It is only a goto at the lowest, least abstract level.
