Partial revert of 72bcd20fa2c129feaabf4601eaeea3fdd05e43cd

After looking at this again, turns out the extra atom on the front is
not required to differentiate. List literals cannot start with an atom
of either "dot notation" or "method call" as both strings contain
spaces; users are not provided with any manner by which to define a
variable or class name that contains spaces.

The resulting list I was working with that led me to believe this would
be a problem actually started with String("dot notation"), which of
course would not be matched when looking for a list that begins with an
atom.
