Description
When exporting Revit BaseQuantities (Revit 2021 - IFC Exporter 21.4.0.0.) the Perimeter (default Revit parameter) get's exported to IFC in feet instead of meter/millimeter as set up in Revit itself. The unit in the IFC file is meter/millimeter but hasn't been converted from feet to meter/millimeter. See files and screen shots attached. Is it possible to fix this?

Research direction
Start with the attached Project1.ifc.log and the Revit 2021 export scenario shown in the screenshots, focusing on Qto_SpaceBaseQuantities: GrossPerimeter. Reproduce the export and compare the perimeter value with Revit's configured meter/millimeter units; done means the IFC GrossPerimeter is converted from feet to the declared unit.
