Given that 's `builtins.tail` is said to be inefficient and best avoided (noogle.dev/f/builtins/tail), what alternative method should one use to "manually iterate" through a list?

Nixpkgs' `lib.lists` doesn't care much and uses `head` and `tail`. github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/

builtins.tail - Nix function reference

Return the list without its first item; abort evaluation if the argument isn’t a list or is an empty list.
