I think you are misinterpreting "expression" as meaning "entire regular expression" (which is a defined term in 9.1). Look in particular at the example at the end of item 2:<blockquote>the ERE "e$f" is valid, but can never match because the 'f' prevents the expression "e$" from matching ending at the last character</blockquote> The "$" in "e$f" anchors the expression "e", even though the "$" is followed by "f". There is nothing special about the beginning and end of alternatives as regards anchor positioning.
