1. create file /tmp/emacs-bug.el with contents
(setq initial-buffer-choice
;"~/";;works
(lambda ()
'(call-interactively 'org-agenda-list)
"*Org Agenda*"
"~/");;doesn't work, opens scratch buffer
)
2. emacs -Q -l /tmp/emacs-bug.el
3. scratch buffer opens.
According to docs,
If the value is nil and `inhibit-startup-screen' is nil, show the
startup screen. If the value is a string, switch to a buffer
visiting the file or directory that the string specifies. If the
value is a function, call it with no arguments and switch to the buffer
that it returns. If t, open the `*scratch*' buffer.

The docs you quoted say "if the value is a function, call it with no
arguments and switch to the buffer that it returns", but your function
does not return a buffer (it returns the string "~/").
I'm not sure what your ultimate intent was. However, if you're trying to
run `org-agenda-list' but show a buffer visiting your home directory,
maybe this will help:
(setq initial-buffer-choice
(lambda ()
(org-agenda-list)
(find-file "~/")))
The difference is that `find-file' visits "~/" and returns a buffer. I
omitted the "*Org Agenda*" line from your example because it has no
effect.

Your function doesn't return a buffer.
