(unlike compute-goto which is very niche and dangerous).
It's a niche that system languages are the few fit for. Even CPython
(and other interpreters) are using that feature.
All of fast portable interpreters i.e. not JITs.
It's still a niche, and a feature should have uses beyond that or be
better tailored for this use case.
Forced tail call was my best shot - it's useful for functional
programming and it works for fast interpreters.
