Description

It looks like that Nullable has been pretty efficient.

I think using this new facility would make the implementation of some data structure more straightforward (e.g. Deque, linked list, and various trees).

Research direction

Start by reviewing Julia's Nullable facility and the implementations of Deque, linked lists, and the various trees. The issue names no files or tests and does not define which structures should change, so done would require first narrowing the scope and then validating each selected data structure.
