My pseudocode to Python?

Rather than starting with all seven strings in the list and deleting one if
a conditional is not true, why not start with 6 elements (with the one in
index 3 missing) and insert the 7th element into the third index?

>>> mylist = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'e', 'f', 'g']
>>> if x:
>>>    mylist.insert(3, 'd')

>>> mylist
['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g']
