When using comma delimited ColdFusion lists, why are empty elements ignored?

CFFaq.com
ColdFusion lists are not CSV comma-delimited lists and do not behave as CSV lists do. ColdFusion ignores empty list elements, so ListLen("a,b,,d,e") will return 4 (not 5), and ListGetAt("a,b,,d,e", 5) will throw an error. To convert a ColdFusion list to a CSV list, use Replace() and replace all ",," (comma comma) with ", ," (comma space comma) - a space is a valid list member value and ColdFusion will not ignore it.
