So, I get the urge to move the lists into an array and thought about
doing that while adding the third list for sure.  However, it does
make code paths which don't walk all lists wordier and the code path
is already tricky like hell.  Given that there aren't that many places
which loop over the lists, if you really wanna clean it up, maybe add
an interator over the lists so that both parts of code can look lean?

Thanks.
