Nearly every modern language supports defer in some sense. Unless you are talking about RAII hiding the defer, but that's not the case with a custom Defer type or similar that takes a closure in the constructor.

Defer is a way better solution than having to cleanup in every single failure case.

> cleanup in every single failure case

you're only tempted to clean up [fully] in every single failure case if you don't know how to implement cascading gotos or the arrow pattern.

I'll be honest that you are in the minority here.

goto is widely considered an anti-pattern and so is the arrow pattern.

> you are in the minority here

Yes, I am.

> Invisible jumps are very bad

Agreed; they're terrible. Implicit sucks, explicit rules.
