Variable error

What wrong with my variable? (new to Onshape)
I am testing Variables an tried to use it on a dimension that measure the distance between construction lines with several constraints: Like you can see, I am not able to use the variable SecW, it is red colored. You can have a look by yourself here…
More informative error messages?
When entering a formula, it would be very helpful to have more informative error messages, including e.g.: * "Units mismatch, expected length found mm^3" * For an invalid parameter, *WHICH* parameter is invalid? First one that's invalid, anyway. * "<variableName> out of range, expect 0..100000mm was -3.2mm"
