Calculation formula within variable input

Hey folks, first of all I love the new variable function. Within the setup of spacings I want to reference my base value (“8”) and do calculations, e.g. (spacing-base)*2". This works fine and the value is calculated properly within the input to add a new variable. But I expected not that the calculation string changes to the absolute value. With this behaviour I loose the connection/ reference to my base value and the calculation is some how obsolete.

Does anybody feel the same?
Will there be an update?

Thanks

+1000 we def need this asap. I am trying to set up a pretty large library that will be shared across many lines of business, they all have and want different things like spacing, padding, and corners plus we want to add controls for density which a multiplier would be perfect for e.g. #base-spacing*1.5
