Comment (by smerriman):

 I just installed Twenty Fifteen with a fresh version of WP 4.4 (no
 plugins), created a post, and added 5 top level comments. Under Settings -
 Discussion I set it to break into 2 top level comments per page (last
 displayed by default, older comments at top of page - though changing
 those settings doesn't alter the result). You should just see comment 5 on
 the post.

 In comments.php I copied the wp_list_comments line and pasted a second
 copy directly underneath with the page parameter:

 {{{
 wp_list_comments( array(
         'style'       => 'ol',
         'short_ping'  => true,
         'avatar_size' => 56,
         'page'=>2
 ) );
 }}}

 You should then see comment 5 duplicated on the post - whatever page
 setting you choose.

 `wp_list_comments` has:

 {{{
 // Pagination is already handled by `WP_Comment_Query`, so we tell Walker
 not to bother.
 }}}

 and then some code which ignores the page parameter and sets the cpage
 parameter directly from the query var, so it shouldn't be possible to get
 any other result.
