Also it seems that in extreme cases, formal agreements aren’t enough either. For example the USA’s pretty much unilateral cessation of many of its commitments under the Iran nuclear agreement the moment Trump took office. That one was supposed to go on for a-LOT more years.

Yes, I would see stepping out of that agreement with Iran also of a real breach of promises. Bush also broke formal promises made to North Korea.
I don’t think NATO expansion fits into that category.
