OK, yes, I have just obtained bash-4.3.tar.gz from ftp.gnu.org, which
is the latest and is dated 26-Feb-2014.  It does expand the
explanation as I'd like.

The two words don't seem me to be used interchangeably in the Bash
manual page.  "evaluate" is used only for obtaining the value of
"arithmetic evaluations" and "conditional expressions", whereas
"expand" is used for operations that are strictly textual
replacements.
