Change Description

This PR replaces lists created with list() with [] ref.

Rationale

The [] notation is the most concise and Pythonic way to create a list.

It corresponds to the way we create lists with elements, which saves some of the mental energy that would otherwise be consumed by considering two different ways of creating lists.

This method has the added benefit of providing a minor performance boost. Here are the times prior to and following the change:

$ python3 -m timeit "x = list()"
5000000 loops, best of 5: 82 nsec per loop

$ python3 -m timeit "x = []"
10000000 loops, best of 5: 25.4 nsec per loop

Testing/Review Recommendations
