Question: Why doesn't ImportGraph provide an "output=Array" as an output option?

ImportGraph reads one or more graphs from a file. For a file containing multiple graphs, the supported formats are digraph6, graph6, and sparse6. I notice that one option is "output = graph or list, or iterator". However, in my programming with Maple, I was reminded several times that list is only good for a small amount of data.  

Although I can convert the list to an array using the convert function, the time spent in the conversion process needs to be considered.

restart: 
with(GraphTheory):
L:=ImportGraph("C:/Users/eul10c.g6", graph6, output=list):#31026 connected eulerian graphs on 10 vertices graphs and Change to your path here.
convert(L,Array) 

So does it make more sense to provide an "output=Array" as an output option?
