That means that the base profiles must have a minimal setting that is
added to in lower profiles, rather than a reasonable default that's
entirely reset in lower profiles (perhaps to a smaller setting), correct?

I'm not a huge fan of that, if that's what it requires, since there is
no way of subtracting USE_EXPAND settings that I know about.

Thanks,
