> Every function takes one argument - a list.

That's one way to look at it, but the major difference is that one can also pass a a list as one argument, as in `(f x y z)` and `(f (list x y z)` are not the same. The thing with tuples is that a tuple of one datum is the very same as that datum itself and the same is true with the currying situation. `(f x) y` and `f x y` are truly one and the same in Haskell and Ocaml, just as `f(x, y)` and `let val a = (x,y) in f x` are one and the same in SML. This is not the case in Rust where `f(x,y)`, a function called with two arguments, and `f((x,y))`, a function called with one argument that is a tuple of two arguments are two different things.

There is also a difference in Scheme between returning a single value that is a list containing multiple values, and actually returning multiple values, In Rust however there is no difference between returning two values and returning a pair of two values. So Rust functions actually do properly take multiple arguments but always return a single one which may or may not be a tuple. In SML, Haskell and OCaml all functions technically take only one argument and return one value.
