Object CHOP - correct behaviour?

When measuring distances between a reference object and another object using the Object CHOP, the scale of the Reference object affects the result. Is this correct? The distance between these objects is not changing. Same with the extraction the position, although I can see some more motivation for this. Perhaps the CHOP needs to be able to optionally ignore the scale of the reference object? Most of the time we use the Object CHOP for real-world distances and if the user doesn't know that the scale of the reference object affects the distance reading, havoc ensues. (It did today!)

Thanks,
