If multiple transitions from GOOD to BAD happen, then I don't see how
binary search is useful/possible. The same is true for a simple list
of numbers, say, 1 5 6 2 3 4. You can't use binary search here because
you can't "throw away" all numbers to the left (or right) of your
pivot. Or am I missing your point?
