Good to see, thank you! A few grammar nits below -- could you please
update and re-send?

Could you please say something like "The head of the list."?
Just to keep point of view more consistent through the documentation.

Here, could you please change "next to" to "after"? This removes the
ambiguity where both the prior and the subsequent elements might be
thought of as "next to".
