I think I'm missing or misreading something. If I understood, the
assignment and expansion errors are both shell errors that should have the

But I see the assignment error ending the list and returning to the top
level, and the expansion exiting the script:
That's not an expansion error.
if true; then
echo ${bad:?word}
echo reached3
fi
echo reached4
This is a well-defined expansion whose behavior is to exit a
non-interactive shell if `bad' is unset or null.
