title: new [] or new List<T>?
body: <p>I'm just thinking about the styling and performance. Previously I used to write something like,</p>
  
  <pre><code>var strings = new List&lt;string&gt; { "a", "b", "c" };
  var ints = new List&lt;int&gt; { 1, 2, 3};
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But now I tend to like this style more,</p>
  
  <pre><code>var strings = new [] { "a", "b", "c" }.ToList();
  var ints = new [] { 1, 2, 3}.ToList();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I prefer the second style, but now considering - is it really worth to write it like that or maybe it's not that efficient and requires more operations?</p>
