Hello!
Thank you for your topic and your conversation.
Indeed, it seems like there is another topic that requests a different UI solution to the same problem, so this one is tricky to address.
I think that keeping the discussion around “the friction” (rather than the solution) as you’ve been doing it will allow the core team to propose a solution according to the issues. I do appreciate that you explained:
- It is important for you to keep your flow without switching screens
- Whenever you help someone, you would have to declare variables on your own project which you later have to delete because you don’t really need them.
And so on. Truly, these kind of conversations do help! Please keep the conversation if you thing there are needs that you agree/disagree on. 
Following this explanation, I’ll do the following:
- Merge ZeroX’s concept Better Variable System (Best out of old and new variable system) - #4 by ZeroX4 with this topic since this topic has a clearer “my needs are the following…” statements (however, I am still aware and had acknowledge Zerox’s concept).
- I’ve renamed the feature request to talk about the friction
- I’ll keep an eye on this conversation (feel free to invite other users to express their needs). It is bringing clarity to the needs/workflows/scenarios that might be affected by recent technical changes.
Thank you again for your help!
