The assumption is wrong since Macro expansion happen on the fly, governed and modified depending on context and current settings of internal macros and other stuff. The question does not belong on the teTeX list anyhow. You should have received the charter of the list when you subscribed: it is for discussing specifics of the teTeX implementation, not for general TeX matters for which the Usenet group comp.text.tex, or in your case perhaps also de.comp.text.tex is much more appropriate.
