IIRC, catalina.properties file does not support substitution for
anything, besides those two specific properties, "catalina.home" and
"catalina.base".

If no "catalina.base" is defined then it defaults to be the same as
catalina.home. You can see the source code of the Bootstrap and
CatalinaProperties classes in org.apache.catalina.startup package.
