Interestingly, many seem to want to project their own opinion upon Dijkstra.

Dijkstra is clearly arguing for a “single entry single exit” style. But modern consensus seem to uphold single entry but accept multiple exits from a block. Break, continue, early returns, exceptions - all are example of multiple exit. These are more constrained than gotos but nevertheless Dijkstras argument applies to them also.

I personally belive early returns can greatly improve readability (when not nested too deep) an that exceptions are typically cleaner than the alternative. But I acknowlede Dijkstra would disagree.
