I may be missing something, of course, but Dmitry's message reads as
follows to me:
"It was a design choice to track the start and end locations because
we needed that for arrays, and resetting the locations if we have Vars
in the list like you are suggesting is OK by me."

I am going to re-read a bit more the area and think about a couple of
patterns to test, but I think that your suggested solution should be
OK to disable the list squashing as you are suggesting in this case:
there is nothing we can really do, and IMO that would still be OK for
most users because squashing has been designed for non-Var lists as
far as I know. This is a rare pattern for long lists in IN arrays, as
well. I'll sleep on it for now.
