The real problem with ALTER was that the ALTER statements were often 
quite distant from the GO TOs they affected. In a badly written program 
it could be surprisingly difficult to work out whether a particular GO TO 
was the target of an ALTER statement, particularly of the program also 
included code from a COPY library.

Anyway, I think its justification was based on a false premise, that the 
sort of conditionals an ALTER would replace were so expensive to execute 
that merely using ALTERs would make a measurable difference to run times.

As you say, the simple approach was to write structured code and not use 
ALTERs, but remember that when COBOL was introduced, the concept of 
structured code was scarcely a gleam in the eye of Djikstra or Wirth.
