Description

See https://github.com/dotnet/csharpstandard/pull/672#discussion_r2302678377

There are many locations in the standard where we have used the term "expansion" when a better term would be "semantic equivalent".

The key to look for is when the "expansion" includes qualifiers like "except for".

We should make the replacement.
