Regression: String indexing broken in Dynamo 2.0.x

[dimven]

Dynamo version

2.0.2

Operating system

Windows 10

What did you do?

tried to get the substring from a string object

What did you expect to see?

the substring

What did you see instead?

the entire string again

It seems the string is automatically promoted to a list whenever you tryto use list indexing notation?

This worked perfectly fine in previous versions. I can remember using string indexing as far back as 0.8:

@aparajit-pratap will your current task address this?

I wanted to reference the dynamo forum post here as well, https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/more-feet2fraction-issues/22408/11

Yes, there's a current task for this filed internally: https://jira.autodesk.com/browse/DYN-995. It was a regression after the introduction of Dictionaries.
