(Sorry, I meant the stripping of expired signatures is on by default.)
It was my impression that expired sigs would be retained by default.
Removing expired sigs is tantamount to removing expired/revoked
userids and subkeys, IMO, and should not be done by default.

I only see "unusable" in my manual page for the following:
show-unusable-uids
Show revoked and expired user IDs in
key listings. Defaults to no.
show-unusable-subkeys
Show revoked and expired subkeys in
key listings. Defaults to no.
