The flow of the program is determined by your imperative or declarative programming. You do things once by once or declare what would happen if an event occurs.
Goto messes up this flow and makes the code way harder to track. It gives programmers too much freedom, they need to be constrainted by shackles or eveything gonna be catastrophic once day.
