Because @list is an output-only argument, which is supposed to be filled                                                                                                       
by caller(inserting elements into it). If it's not empty, it's an inputing                                                                                                     
argument, in which case caller will take existing node (in @list) into account,
and insert new nodes before/after them.                                                                                                                                            
Please lemme put it another way, if list argment is not empty:                                                                                                                 

Before calling:                                                                                                                                                                
list: head->A                                                                                                                                                                  

After calling                                                                                                                                                                  
list: head->A->B->C                                                                                                                                                            

It will confuse caller cuz it can't tell whether A is a valid returned
by callee.
