When making a parameterized blueprint to set request limits based on a formula using arithmetic, the parameter is not being set properly when the maximum value is not infinite.

I set the blue chest request to 50 solar panels and the maximum is infinite:
I set the green chest request to 50 solar panels and the maximum is also 50:
I make a blueprint of this using a formula to calculate the request based on stack size:
When I paste the blueprint, the blue chest works as expected:
The green chest doesn't set the ingredient properly nor the calculated number:
Furthermore, if you set the formula to a constant:
The ingredient is set and the minimum is set, but I would expect the maximum to match the 42 in this case:
Example blueprint:

Just to hone this in a little more, it seems the issue occurs if the formula modifies the request value to be greater than the maximum. In my previous example I had the maximum value set to 50 and then set the formula to a constant of 42 (less than 50) and it set the minimum to 42 and left the maximum at 50 as I specified. If I set the formula to the constant 51 it breaks again (greater than the max of 50).

Hello, the upper limit of the logistic slot wasn't even considered by the parametrisation so far (it was always meant to be the "prototype version" at that point).
I added the upper limited to the parametrisation, and it seems to work ok.
