Does it make a difference in understandability whether you implement a
state transition as "goto state123" or in the Dijkstra-compatible

The syntax is fine (the one is just as unreadable as the other) but what
about the implementation?
The argument about avoiding gotos have been along the lines that the
goto makes it hard to understand the program, not that there was a
problem with implementing it.
I couldn't locate the pertinent subject at
https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~EWD/welcome.html, do you have a hint?
