> Concatenation is the wrong way to build up a list anyway, if you're adding an
item at a time.  The "set end of" approach is always the way to go, whether it's
records or something else.

>    List concatenation is more for combining two lists that might already have
multiple items each.

Yes, but if you're dealing with records and combining lists and records this
is bound to be problematic.
