Research direction

The issue points to lib/intrinsic.js around line 206; start there and reproduce the cf.split(',', cf.ref('SomeParameter')) example. Trace how the argument is converted, and consider the work complete when the Ref object is preserved rather than becoming '[object Object]'.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Because of the toString() here, if you pass a object (e.g. a "Ref") to cf.split(), it gets turned into [object Object].

> cf.split(',', cf.ref('SomeParameter'))
{ 'Fn::Split': [ ',', '[object Object]' ] }
