According to the following page, MATLAB 2019a should have automatic singleton extension:

My tests show that this is not always true:

% A test array
>> x=false(3,3)
  3×3 logical array
   0   0   0
   0   0   0
   0   0   0
% Singleton extension works
>> x([1 3],2)=true
  3×3 logical array
   0   1   0
   0   0   0
   0   1   0
% Singleton extension doesn't work
>> x([1 3],2:3)=[true true]
Unable to perform assignment because the size of the left
side is 2-by-2 and the size of the right side is 1-by-2.
