Not really. What’s happening is that a concept does not meet your
expectations, and so there is a dissonance, and you blame the answerer for
your confusion, when the real problem is internal. 

Here, you have imagined that expansion is a term that can only apply to
something with an outer boundary, and so you imagine that expansion is
visualized by watching that boundary move outward. This is what leads to
the question of “expanding into what?” But the reality is that expansion is
a perfectly understandable concept with or without an outer boundary.
Without an outer boundary, the meaning of expansion is simple: things in
the space are getting further apart. Period. So there is no outer boundary
involved and in fact there does not even need to be ANY outer boundary,
involved or not. And if there is no outer boundary, then “expanding into
what?” Is a meaningless question. 

Watch your internal unspoken assumptions. They are likely wrong.
