Sure does. In my own code I prefer `NTH` for anything beyond the cadr. Or just use arrays for random access.
Note that "second" will not work as intended if you just have a pair; it access the second element of a list. I rarely find any use for anything beyond first, second, and rest; if I need to access nth elements I will likely switch to a different data structure.
Thanks, I didn't know that but edited my comment accordingly.
