OK, I checked all the function packages, and apart from the mentioned StrucTiSM the constructs without list_ are used in ParMA and in random_forest. However: I also read the package doc more thoroughly, and it says there: "These keywords can also be given in a shorter form, omitting the list_ prefix, ". That would then bring me back to the original question why it didn't seem to work in the example I gave? (I haven't tested yet whether it would work with the list_ prefix.)
