I wouldn't die on that hill but I agree and have done the same. In fact I would argue that if you find yourself in arguments about the practice it is a good sign your team is at a level where you should in fact prohibit all use of goto. IIRC at least one of the revisions of MISRA specifically allows for using goto to break forward to a cleanup-and-return block, but others don't.
