I think this is the Right Method (tm) to build index pages. So says the
wikimedia documentation on "Transclusion" I read.

I would say that creating a brief page is the cleaner and more systematic
way. Somebody else can come later and document it. But go ahead if you
want to add the ApplicationBox in the List of X page, there will be time
later to make a new page.

The idea was to expose the bugs (missing pages) so that they are easier to
fix.

The list of X is not an X. But the real reason was that it introduced a
recursive loop because of the transclusion. So doing like you say is good
too.
