Then the Expanded-NZ then by definition has not yet disintegrated. So by NFHS decree, any team-R foul that has occured up to that point where the ball finally does pass beyond the ExNZ would
not be considered to be a PSK foul.

What if the foul occurs after the expanded neutral zone has disintegrated? This doesn't appear to be addressed in the Rules or Case Book.

Not sure what you are driving at since by definition, since this zones disintegrates once the kicked ball passes it anyhow. Regardless, that point remains two yards from the snap. So any team-R foul occuring beyond that two yard point is now a PSK foul. There will be cases where a team-R foul occurs 40 yards downfield, meaning the ExNZ has long since by definition been gone.
Therefore, nothing is unique that needs to be addressed
