for example, the environment modules package defines a bash module which has subcommands as completions, including use, which has as sub-completions the list of available packages. Using emacs-bash-completion, the subcommands are presented as completions, but, upon chosing 'use', the available packages are not presented as completions.

I can confirm this, this happens with kubectl command as well. Only completes till kubectl get where as other terminal emulators can complete whole command like kubectl get pod my-pod

This is an old bug, probably not relevant anymore.

Sub-commands work, in general, for example with systemctl. What might not work might be completion for specific commands due to differences in behavior between bash completion and bash-completion.el

If a command or sub-command doesn't work, please open a bug with the details of the command, the script that configures the completion for bash and their versions so I can reproduce.
