    public interface NoRemoveList
    {
        T this[int index] { get; }
        int Count { get; }

    }

    public class ListFactory
    {
        private class HiddenList: List, NoRemoveList
        {
            // no access outside
        }

        public static NoRemoveList NewList()
        {
            return new HiddenList();
        }
    }
