Rather than typing how tall something is, ask it. Bounds reports the size, the centre, or the lowest and highest corner, as a vector.

This is what makes proportion procedural. Stack a head on a torso by reading the torso's height instead of typing a lift, and the head stays put when the torso changes. Pair it with Separate XYZ to take just the one number you need.
