#emacs doesn't ship a goto-line function. M-x apropos goto-line shows several implementations. But I was surprised to see avy's implementation https://github.com/abo-abo/avy/blob/933d1f36cca0f71e4acb5fac707e9ae26c536264/avy.el#L1750-L1784
@PuercoPop You are speaking in riddles. It is even called goto-line.

@HaraldKi It is not riddles, it is a mistake as acknowledged in https://mastodon.social/@PuercoPop/114269945473188483
That said, that point about people re-implementing still stands. ej.
avy-goto-line, org-goto-line[0], sly-goto-line[1], go--goto-line[2], etc.

@PuercoPop
I'm not sure about the rest, but in case of avy I feel it is justified. With goto-line you need to know the exact line number which may be problematic if line numbering is turned off.
That being said I only use avy-goto-char-timer for jumping.
@PuercoPop Correct, because using goto-line in a Lisp program is not the right thing. goto-char/forward-line is the preferred method there.
All the implementations you cited are exactly that .. for use in Lisp code (and not interactive usage).
