The monster is only considered to have entered the one space in which it ended its movement. In other words, large monsters “shrink” to move as if they were normal-sized monsters, then “expand” again when they are done moving.
This implies that "entering a space" can only be done during movement because "expansion" is not "entering" due to it happening after movement.

No it doesn't. Expansion does not count as entering a space because it specifically says so in the rules, not "due to it happening after movement". That's just an assumption you have made.

Any figure entering a water space must spend two movement points to enter or it cannot enter that space.
This also implies that "entering a space" can only be done during movement because it assumes anyone entering has MPs to spend.

Again, no. If anything it implies that "entering a water space" can only be done during movement. You cannot take a rule that specifically applies to water spaces and apply it to all spaces.

Also, I'm not sure if this was intended to apply in all cases of entering a space. Are we saying that an Ettin cannot throw a hero into a water space because the hero doesn't have 2 MPs to spend? I hope not.
The safest interpretation is that any figure entering a water space during movement (not necessarily a move action) must spend two movement points to enter.
In which case this rule simply implies that "entering a water space during movement" can only be done during movement. Which is a tautology.
