I don't consider JavaScript's Array to count because using it as a mutable string incurs a significant amount of additional overhead, because it has to box every character and check at runtime the type of each element. This is not true of the APIs that I listed.

Ah yes, arbitrary and capricious goalposts moved randomly as you get unhappy with where your decisions lead. Truly a hallmark of solid thinking.
