You don't need [iteration] anyway iteration is just (logically) syntactic sugar

Recursion (as well as XSLT functional programming) is a light-bulb concept for most people, i.e. it is somewhat baffling until the light bulb turns on in your head. It is only after that moment of brilliant clarity that recursion is understood and at that point often quite well. A person's clear understanding of a concept though does not necessarily make it "natural".

Sugar is rarely applied to the already sweet, but often to the bitter...
