minetest.register_node("tricorder:test", {
    description = "test",
    groups = { snappy = 3 },
    on_use=function(itemstack, user, pointed_thing)
    --    READ THE DOCS!!!
    --    inv=minetest.get_inventory({type="player",name=user:get_player_name()})

To see the bug save this as the init.lua of a mod, then in game do /giveme testmod:test 20
It should be that upon left click a single "test" item is removed from player inv.
But that does not happen unless there is a stack of the "test" item at some point AFTER the player's currently selected inventory slot.
