Additional Information

This is not a bug, if an arcade expression is written with just a single field when applied it is simplified to a single field label. if you were to write a more complex expression $feature.field1 + " test" you would see it reference the custom(expression).

Workaround

The expressions work provided that after clicking OK on the expression window, select “Custom Expression” again.  It does not change to the custom expression despite a simple custom expression was written.
