Your original is the same as:
put field «test» into tParam
answer testFunction(tParam)
So yes, whatever is placed as a parameter to a function is not expanded. Think
about doing the same thing with an arbitrary block of text in the field and
what would be the expected result.

Yes, your description is correct (except for saying the behavior is
"puzzling" :-)
The first case you are passing a single parameter (which happens to have
commas in its current content). You could have said " paramcount()
returns 1 as expected".
The second case you pass 5 values.
And
I have come across a puzzling behavior when trying to use the content of a
field as parametres in a function, and I am trying to understand why.
I put the following in a field called «test»: 1,2,3,4,5
When I then call the function like this:
answer testFunction(field «test»), t
