< Why is the above code not satisfactory ?

no idea, works for me.

(defun a-test (lst)
  (let ((a (pop lst))
        (b (pop lst))
        (c (pop lst)))
    (+ a (- c b))))


(a-test '(3 5 7))

(defun a-test2 (lst)
  (let ((a (elt lst 0))
        (b (elt lst 1))
        (c (elt lst 2)))
    (+ a (- c b))))


(a-test2 '(1 4 7))



show the code? might be helpful. 12 variables can be done with reduce
mapcar, depending on the operation.
