Comment:
It's not a bug it's a feature :)
From the documentation of !PolynomialRing:
{{{
``PolynomialRing(base_ring, name, sparse=False)`` returns a univariate
polynomial ring; also, PolynomialRing(base_ring, names, sparse=False)
yields a univariate polynomial ring, if names is a list or tuple providing
exactly one name. All other input formats return a multivariate polynomial
ring.
}}}
