Why can't I pass a value with units to an opThicken

Why can't I pass a value with units to an opThicken unless it's passed in as a variable from function parameter definition:

see line 61 to 69 and note that this all works with no errors if I replace "1e-6*meter" with "offset" both of which are valueWithUnits but behave differently:

var th1 = offset<0?-1e-6*meter:0; var th2 = offset>0?1e-6*meter:0; println(th1 ~ " - " ~ th2); println(offset); opThicken(context, id + "TemporaryThickness", { "entities" : faces, "thickness1" : th1, "thickness2" : th2 });the above code gives error: @opThicken: INVALID_INPUT

your th1 and th2 base case has no units. You need to replace 0 with 0*meter.
You are comparing offset to a value without units.
Additionally, you have a negative value for th1, both inputs for opThicken need to be positive.
