You've obviously missed the Splice operations (which allow you to move nodes
from one container to another without copying); those of course are
impossible for Vectors. Similarly with the Swap_Links operations.
And the performance of Insert is O(log N) for lists while it is not
specificed for vectors (typically it would O(N) or worse as all of the
elements will need to moved to make room).
It's a subtle difference in fact; we argued about whether we needed both
along the lines that you have, but eventually decided that the data
structures are so fundamental that it would be weird to not to provide both.
