INADA, I believe that piece of information is on the Glossary just to make the difference with a "linked list", but in that case, it should be in the list definition too, as it's fair to think people can learn what a list is by reading its definition first, instead of the Glossary entry.

I believe Ammar's reasoning is right, though. If the time complexity of the task is not required, then we should remove those mentions.

Benjamin, I'm adding you as you introduced the change. Perhaps you can bring some light? Even if 10 years have passed? :P
