Thanks for noticing. Now that I look at it closer I think it's the other
way around, the loop above checking constants for the first expression
is not really necessary.

Originally I was hesitant to extract it was because it's quite small
part of the code. But now I've realized that the part relevant to lists
is not really correct, which makes those bits even more different, so I
think it makes sense to leave it like that. What do you think?
