Sorry Monte, I thought (erroneously?) that right-to-left chunk references are in the to-do-but-not-yet-implemented-chest of LC 8. Anyway, the following example empty is among the items of empty --> returns false item 1 of empty is empty --> returns true shows, that one could think about == adding a new "correct/consistent" definition of item, e.g. "trueItem", that is free of all these contradictions generating trailing delimiter and 'index is out of bounds' things, == and about making the (sometimes) "wrong/inconsistent" item-behaviour always downward compatible.
