Also used for parts of the code that don't depend on the payload type.

    Gets the payload associated with this node.
    This is trusted because all nodes are associated with a payload, even
    the sentinel node.
    It is also not possible to mix Nodes in DLists of different types.
    This function is implemented as a member function here, as UFCS does not
    work with pointers.
