LOD equivalent of INDEX

Is there a level of detail expression equivalent of a particular table calculation in Tableau? This question comes up on the Tableau community forums every now and then, and almost always intrigues me.

Often a level of detail (LOD) expression isn’t really necesary, but occaisionally an alternative to table calculations is necesary. And like a mountain to be climbed, or a trail to be explored, I’m fascinated by whether it is even possible to implement LOD equivalents to some common table calcs.
