So why treat 'continue' specially?
I am inclined to agree, but in the opposite direction: a case should be

I agree, those all seem like bad ideas. But 'continue' has been singled
out for a SyntaxError. Rumor has it that continue was difficult to make
work at all, while the other keywords, while ill-advised, were at least
possible.
