require a comma between values. A comma after the final value is allowed,
but not required. Values in a list can be arbitrary expressions.

List and tuples have differences regarding allowed types. See [tuples](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#tuple) and [lists](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#list)

Tried expanding on this a bit for clarity:

Suggested change
List and tuples have differences regarding allowed types. See [tuples](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#tuple) and [lists](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#list)
Lists and tuples each have different constraints on the types they allow. For more information on the types that each allows, refer to [tuples](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#tuple) and [lists](/terraform/language/expressions/type-constraints#list).
