The flowchart on the right could have had a conditional loop instead of a GOTO, and it would have the same number of possible paths! Are loops considered harmful also?
Personally I don't believe that goto is harmful in any way, and people have to resort to weird contrived arguments to make it so.
...I also take exception at the phrase "unstructured jump". What does he think happens when a GOTO is taken? The CPU just blindly jumps to an address? Maybe check out godbolt next time.
