+Prompted by flashcards being missed, here are some "experiments" with different frontmatter,

+
+----------------- EXPERIMENT 1
+
+---
+tags:
+  - flashcards/philosophy/philosophers
+  - flashcards/toes
+---
+
+CachedMetadata.frontmatter["tags"]: flashcards/philosophy/philosophers,flashcards/toes

+---
+

+
+
+----------------- EXPERIMENT 3
+
+---
+tags:
+  - "#flashcards/philosophy/philosophers"
+  - "#flashcards/toes"
+---
+
+CachedMetadata.frontmatter["tags"]: #flashcardsX/philosophy/philosophers,#flashcardsX/toes
+
+
+----------------- EXPERIMENT 4
+
+---
+tags:
+  - #flashcards/philosophy/philosophers
+---
+
+Obsidian does not recognize that the frontmatter has any tags
+(i.e. if the frontmatter includes the "#" it must be enclosed in quotes)
+
+----------------- CONCLUSION
+
+CachedMetadata.frontmatter["tags"]: tags are comma separated. They may or may not include the "#".
+Any double quotes in the frontmatter are stripped by Obsidian and not present in this variable.
