You probably imply that macros can accept arguments, which makes them not to be
variables. Well… probably that's fair too. Feel free to close report if you
don't
think it's actionable.

I don't think such problem is a thing. If you execute `info variables` with the
original
testcase which does not even contain includes, you will get so overwhelming
amount of output that terminal scrollback won't have enough space. That's why
`i
variables` supports regexps, to reduce the output.
