Thank you all for clarifying that bug in my understanding! I suppose
that I expected 'a' to be promoted to a list when indexed from NULL.
I will be more judicious in the future when I post.

You have 'merely' found a bug in your understanding. What type did you
expect 'a' to be? If you expected a list, that is not what happens in the
first example, and you need
a <-

I believe that I may have found a bug in R. The top code sample gives
an error as shown. However, by simply switching which field is
initialized first as in the bottom code sample, it works as expected.
This gives an error:
a <- NULL
a[["field1"]] <- 1
a[["field2"]] <- matrix(c(2,1), 1)
