Do you have a proof? (Show me asm code)
Since the final switch does not allow a 'default' case, the check can be
omitted, and the generated code is a simple index-jump, just like the computed
goto example.
dmd currently doesn't do that, but that's not the language's fault, it's a
quality of implementation issue.
The point is, computed goto offers nothing that final switch doesn't.
