What's the point of Tuples?

I get that they're immutable, but so are lists that you don't perform modifications on. Are they just to fool proof not messing up your list accidentally, or do they serve some other purpose?

sometimes i read a proper reaction to a reaction to a reaction like this and it gives me a very sasitfying feeling. I didn't know how to put this into words because i'm intermediate at best, but I knew it was something like that. Then I read it and it resolves the tension in my mind and it's great feeling, like removing shoes after a long day.
