Themes vs semantic in the color setup

Hey Figmates! 

After using variables for some months now i´ve come to a conclusion that that three levels of variables doesn´t suit every project. Or at least my projects, when it comes to theming different product pages. Until yesterday i used primitives, semantics, and themes as suggested by many users, as a proper setup. But, it just felt too bounding.

You can easily just use the the primitive and semanitic level. With Modes as the theming.

But, now its a bit frustrating. In the appearance menu, its to set menues – theming and semantics. Its unchangeble. The “Theming” now its linked to the semantics menu. 

I changed the setup to have an easier workflow, without being too specific with the naming in the theming process.

Any thoughts on this?
