Use this once you're done comparing or deduplicating, and need to get back to a List, for example, after deduplicating a list of usage names with Set, convert it back so you can feed it into a node that expects a List, like Sort Numbers, Map, or a loop.
Set vs. List: a List (array) keeps items in order and can hold duplicates, and you access items by position, like "the 3rd item." A Set has no order and no duplicates. Adding an item that's already there does nothing, and there's no "position" to ask for. Sets are for asking "is this here?" and for comparing groups of things; Lists are for ordered, step-by-step sequences.
