I voted against the inclusion of goto in Euphoria when the question came up. But I later concluded that it has it's place. You need to seriously consider any proposed use of goto. There is almost always a better way. But almost always is not always. There are unusual situations where it is the lesser evil of whatever other options are available. I believe that was the reasoning of those who wished it's inclusion in Euphoria.
The time for the decision on whether goto should be include in Euphoria has come and gone. It is a part of Euphoria and is being used. I don't see a sufficiently compelling reason to remove it.
