I don't think the proposal makes the list notably more sane on failure
than we have here. If the function returns an error and the list is
modified in any way, how can the caller recover? We're operating on a
principle of modify a copy and throw it away on error, the only
function level solution to the problem you're noting is to make each
function generate a working copy, which is clearly inefficient. This
is a static function, not intended for general use, so I think a
sufficient approach to address your concern is to simply note the error
behavior in the comment above the function, the list is in an
unknown/inconsistent state on error. Thanks,
Alex
