I had a huge issue with the "E-8th Ave. Express" side route signs on the R-1/9s after what happened on Sept. 23, 1967. When that E train we took that morning stopped at 23rd St., all hell broke loose. Talk about being betrayed. It was more than any other reason I insisted on taking A trains after that, no matter what.
Incidentally, the BMT standards had "Myrtle Av. Exp." route signs even though the #10 Myrtle-Chambers route didn't run express along the Myrtle Ave. portion at all. It meant what you referred to: it ran express at some point along its route.
