That isn't "bad OOP". It's how you do non-trivial things in C. Got a pointer to various things and need dynamic dispatch to avoid a god function switch statement? Bang! You've got OOP.

You can simplify a god function switch statement by using goto lines. Cut out the middleman!

And remember kids: you don’t need a bunch of gotos and printfs because you can use enums!
