Which is preferred and/or more efficient operation wise?
I ended up using a list of tuples, but am curious as to which one is preferred.
Opinions welcome but I would love a technical aspect I’m not finding via google.

Tuple of two Lists involves 2 reference types/pointers (1 for each List) per item, List of 2-Tuples involves only one (1 for each Tuple), so you save 8? Bytes for each item (forgot how big the pointer + .net metainfo is).
Does such a Micro-Optimization make sense? I doubt so. I’d rather advise to use whatever makes most sense from a business-logic perspective.
