Hi,
voilà:

series x = normal()

list hey = big ? x : x y # works

OK, fixed in git. But I wonder if, for use in this sort of context,
we might want a more syntactically robust way of defining a list (as
opposed to "space between series IDs = list concatenation"). I guess
we could have a deflist() function on the same pattern as
defarray(). I'd have to verify that this really is more robust in
the ternary context, though I think it should be. The idea is that
the above might be written as
list hey = big ? x : deflist(x,y,z)
