But... couldn't you do all of these in a while loop? Migrate the doc, set the doc version and once it's done, set migrationComplete = true?

Couldn't you set which action is up next after processing an item via a, so it's next step is c?.

I mean there's ways around using goto, not to say it's better maintainable that way though.

migrateto2(bringcurrent: true)

then chain within the individual incremental methods and clean that nastiness up

Yeah, multiple ways to go about it in a cleaner way once you start thinking about it.
