First: As you have come to be used to, briefly stating the rule itself
(rather than just its number, requiring people like me - who have not
memorized all the rule numbers - to go look up what rule this is) would
be nice.

This being about unreachable code, why are the domain_crash() not the
crucial points of "unreachability"? And even if they weren't there, why
wouldn't it be the goto or ...

... the label (just out of context) where the comment needs to go?
