Multirec is an example of a refold. They are surprisingly common in real problems you encounter. The Haskell equivalent is hylo. https://www.stackage.org/haddock/lts-11.10/recursion-schemes...

Something which is perhaps overlooked in JS is that there is a recursion depth built into many engines. Using pure iteration circumvents this making the engine hang instead of error if your algorithm would loop infinitely.
