I almost never use iota. It's useful upon occasion, but in my experience, it's 
_far_ more common to iterate over ranges of items rather than just over a list 
of numbers. Clearly, you're doing things very differently than I am if you use 
iota that much. Regardless, I don't think that loss to clarity is worth the 
characters saved when providing only one argument to iota.
