Description
The ExpandHelper class includes an expandValueSet method that accepts expansion parameters, but does not account for these parameters when conducting a naive expansion. This leads to parameters like "system-version" being ignored silently. This is particularly disruptive for the $package operation.
Ideally, the parameters are applied to the expansion result. At the very least an error/warning should be presented to the user informing them that the result of the expansion does not account for expansion parameters.

Research direction
Start by locating the ExpandHelper.expandValueSet method and trace how naive expansion handles its expansion parameters. Reproduce the $package scenario, then verify that parameters such as system-version are applied to the result or that the user receives an explicit warning or error.
