The operation of the algorithm is easiest to describe as a finite state machine. As others have said, goto is also useful for languages without exception handling, C for instance. You will find gotos in the Linux kernel and in the Numpy core used for that purpose. However, the post was for laughs, I didn't expect serious discussion. The current thread is a pleasant surprise.
