Sorry for not coming up with anything concrete.

"ensure_not_expanded status" should be running as its second step

	test_region ! index ensure_full_index trace2.txt

Which should do this:

    test_region () {
            local expect_exit=0
            if test "$1" = "!"
            then
                    expect_exit=1
                    shift
            fi

            grep -e	'"region_enter".*"category":"'"$1"'","label":"'"$2"\" "$3"
            exitcode=$?

            if test $exitcode != $expect_exit
            then


As "grep" complains that ensure_full_index is not a file, when the
command runs there the file name is "$3".

So it appears to me that the first 

	test "$1" = "!"

is not firing and failing to set expect_exit to 1 and shift the "!"
out of $@.  Why?  I dunno.  Perhaps your shell has quirks around
"local"?  I dunno.
