1 GET var in url goes to 404, 2 GET vars in url page displays fine - El Forum - 11-06-2008

To reproduce, take a fresh install of 1.7.0 and go here
http://localhost/CodeIgniter_1.7.0/index.php/welcome?a
you will get 404, at least I do
then try
http://localhost/CodeIgniter_1.7.0/index.php/welcome?a&b
You will get the welcome page
If you check $_REQUEST, you will see a and b are there.
What is the expected behavior here? I would think if 2 vars will work in a url, 1 should work, however I thought CI was supposed to disable all url vars in this fashion unless enable_query_strings is set to TRUE.
Is this a bug or just me not understanding a feature correctly. I am new to CI
