>> Introducing a new formatting class for locale-dependent list patterns. The class is to provide the functionality from the Unicode Consortium's LDML specification for [list patterns](https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr35/tr35-general.html#ListPatterns). For example, given a list of String as "Monday", "Wednesday", "Friday", its `format` method would produce "Monday, Wednesday, and Friday" in US English. A CSR has also been drafted, and its draft javadoc can be viewed here: https://cr.openjdk.org/~naoto/JDK-8041488-ListPatterns-PR/api.00/java.base/java/text/ListFormat.html

"list format" will read better using the class name `ListFormat`. Here an in other `getInstance` methods.
As is, in prose it looks like it returns some kind of list.
