If possible, let me know one bad example in my context of expanding
plain text with embedded Emacs Lisp.

Like how it can go wrong that in same time cannot go wrong in same
replacement method?

And which replacement method could I use?

Like why did Lisp authors the `read-from-string' function if it should
not be used? It is quite common that its result will be given to `eval'.
