1. Requirement to repeat the possibly complex expression for the list.
2. Possible high cost of generating the list.
3. Possible unique nature of the list.
All of these have the same solution:
@list = ...
for [undef, @list[0...]] ¥ @list ¥ [@list[1...], undef] -> $last, $curr,
$next {
...
}
Which is all but illegible.
