Question about bonus dice

Loving this game so far. I do however have a question about bonus damage.

Some features like Brawler and Warrior start with a d4 bonus dice which can be raised with advancement. 

Section 5 (p19) says: Bonus Weapon Damage Dice: Rolled together with weapon Damage dice.

Then the Swashbuckler feature says: While attacking, you can hit a second target, rolling your weapon Damage dice without any bonus dice.

I assumed it was just PCs with certain features roll a bonus die, but then the Swashbuckler feature doesn't say they have a bonus die, only that they don't have one hitting a second target.

Is this just an omission of bonus die for the Swashbuckler as default, or is there more to bonus dice?

Thanks.

Thanks!

The Swashbucker’s mention of the bonus dice refers to the possible bonus dice acquired from the other features. Thus, the second target suffers the weapon die only, while the first one receives the worst one of the bunch.
