That depends on the pattern of access and usage. For some a zippered list
will outperform a self-balancing tree and vice versa. For others a
zippered tree, or something else, will beat either. But when seeing the
pattern of changing a single element in the middle of a list, a zippered
list is the first improved data structure that comes to mind.
