Or-Func, What is (make-list 3) good for? (besides Lazy-factorial) ???

1. Is there a better way to define Or-Func ?
2. (make-list x) works well here.   What else is it good for?
3.  What is (make-list 3) in MIT Scheme?
        Should (length (make-list 3)) raise an Error?
(define (or-func2 x y) (or x y))
(define or-func   (lambda x  (fold or-func2 #t x)))
(define (fact x)
   (fold * 1
         (map or-func (make-list x) (lrange 1))))
(print (fact 0))
(print (fact 1))
(print (fact 3))
(print (fact 5))
(print (fact 10))
