That's about 5 instructions too far.  It is very easy to slip some extra
instructions between the GOTO and the target in later without noticing the
jump around them.  There is also no label at the target to warn you that
execution could be coming from multiple directions.  This is irreresponsible
programming at its worst.

They won't after you've wasted a day chasing an obscure bug a year from now
