Nowadays bitbake applies overrides dynamically, not at a single
specific point in time during parsing.

             <title>Key Expansion</title>
 
             <para>
-                Key expansion happens when the BitBake datastore is finalized
-                just before BitBake expands overrides.
+                Key expansion happens when the BitBake datastore is finalized.
                 To better understand this, consider the following example:
                 <literallayout class='monospaced'>
      A${B} = "X"
      B = "2"
      A2 = "Y"
                 </literallayout>
-                In this case, after all the parsing is complete, and
-                before any overrides are handled, BitBake expands
-                <filename>${B}</filename> into "2".
+                In this case, after all the parsing is complete,
+                BitBake expands <filename>${B}</filename> into "2".
                 This expansion causes <filename>A2</filename>, which was
                 set to "Y" before the expansion, to become "X".
