People rarely intentionally make use of switch cascading, though it's the only benefit. I'll bet the OP of this thread wasn't planning on it...
So the real benefit you get out of one use case is marginal, and if statements really aren't any more unreadable than goto switches when used normally. Like I said before, you don't want to have 10+ consecutive if statements in ONE alias/event just like you don't want to have 10+ consecutive switch cases in one alias/event.. they're both going to be equally large and unmanageable chunks of code. It's not about syntax, it's about size.
