Ehm. No.

rseq O(1), reverse O(n).
peek O(1), last O(n).
pop O(1), butlast O(n).
get O(1), nth O(n).

(Where O(1) might sometimes mean O(log32 n))

The different functions are there under different names, because they
have different performance promises. Then peek is not equivalent to
last. For lists it is equivalent to first.
