<<I don't understand your reluctance to use the name that has applied
for at least 35 years. Just because some of those non-structured
languages have survived, doesn't take anything away from the term
procedural.  You can write object oriented code in hex if you really
want, it doesn't make raw machine language object oriented.>>

Probably because I work in a shop that still heavily uses older
languages like COBOL and CULPRIT where you still deal with labels,
branching, goto, etc. The fact that it is possible to code
"structured" that way AND the Python way amazes me.
