I don't know, I have a huge soft spot for [list-drip]. I think it's the paradigmatic example of how to do a recursive function in Pd (naive approaches to which usually die with a stack overflow). It makes sense to have a built-in iteration method for [list], but I'd kind of selfishly hate to obsolete [list-drip]. It's great for teaching because it makes students think a lot about how things are implemented.
[list]-abs even still include the very slow list-dripslow.pd, which is only useful for teaching speed comparisons. :)
BTW.: I'm still impressed of list-abs being useful after several years, but I'm also sorry for not having the time to update it to include some useful new features of recent Pd versions.
