Also, they do not recognize Norway as part of EU and do not give Norwegians the choice to opt out. I have not checked since 2020 though.

Since lists are mutable, I can pass them around to functions as arguments, similar to C and perform operations without bothering to return the list. But if a function would do listA = listA + listB, I am not sure what listA would be outside
