In the FAQ there is a question "Why is there no goto?" but the answer addresses how to use exceptions to do something akin to goto. I think the documentation could benefit from the reasons why there is no goto or that the question is changed, perhaps "How to approximate goto?". Reference: https://docs.python.org/3/faq/design.html#why-is-there-no-goto
