Cfengine delays evaluating functions, but at some point it will evaluate functions that can be evaluated. Convergence has many rounds.
You can delay this further if the function is part of a method of sub-bundle or depends on another variable that is not yet defined. Building a configuration on unstable files is not a recommended strategy. It sounds like it could lead to unpredictable outcomes.
