Description

Updatable Variable is too verbose for the UI in ResSim, and I think is distinguished already from constants (which can use an expression but evaluates once)

These are really "input variables" or just "variables" and in ResSim depend on the Independent Variable selector UI.

Research direction

Start by locating the ResSim UI component that displays "Updatable Variable" and inspect how it relates to the Independent Variable selector and constants. Resolve whether the intended label is "variable" or "input variable", then update the relevant UI text consistently and verify the terminology in the affected interface.
