Please explain the use case (aside for looking at the internal representation
of a variable). For example, if .OBJDIR, LIB, etc. ended up unexpanded, many
things would break. I just don't think it is useful to be the default, and
using -V '${var}' to get it to expand is counter-intuitive. Why should it
behave differently in the first place?
