Yes, but arguably, chaining calls in this case is bad, because normally when you're chaining calls with range-based functions, you're not mutating the original range, whereas with reverse, you are. So, it could easily give the impression that it's doing what retro does rather than reversing the elements in place. - Jonathan M Davis
