With ZIP()...
after reading the zip() help description, given something like:

L1:={1,2}; // (goal: Multiply two lists of unequal size)
L2:={2,4,6,8};

the zip function would return a list:

zip('*',L1,L2,0); --> syntax error (help shows single quotes surrounding function)
zip("*",L1,L2,0); --> Error: Invalid input
zip("L1*L2",L1,L2,0); --> {2,8,"1","L"} what the heck is that?

I was expecting {{2,4,6,8},{4,8,12,16}}, or a single list concatenation of this, or some zero padded similar output.

Conclusion: Help doesn't. Zip didn't.

L1*L2? <--- without external loop?
