Expanding a small circle with a path larger than the radius creates a hole inside the circle itself, an error that doesn't happen with rectangles, is there a work around?

It will also happen with rectangles when you round the corners.

You can correct it in the Attributes panel by checking the Reverse Path Direction Off button after expanding.
