Agreed to an extent. Due to the lack of regulation for vitamins though, long-term degradation studies aren’t routinely performed. So as they “lose potency” aka degrade, it’s not clear what the breakdown products are.
While probably safe to consume far after their expiration date, more regulations would need to be put in place to ensure that.
This is done with drugs by the FDA for drug safety. As far as I know vitamins and other supplements like that do not fall under that category and often are much less regulated than they should be.
They just lose potency until eventually they provide no benefit.

Yeah, it’s pretty vague. I think the proper takeaway is to use them as soon as possible, and at the very least they probably won’t do harm. Hopefully.
