While I agree that GOTOs are not required in cycle programs, I have probably
only seen a handful of cycle programs that did not use them. There is
usually always some record you don't want.

Usually when I find cycle programs that do not have GOTOs, it's because they
are some kind of work file.

Personally I find the ITER or LEAVESR can always replace a GOTO, if and only
if it's not a cycle program ;-)
