Custom Distorsion - Fill Patterns

Here is something that is bugging me for years and I never got to raise this question due to automation of my brain. Well...today something broke and I am raising the hand.
When choosing custom distorsion for fills, the arms are defauting to the real dimension of 39 3/8" (or 1M for the sane part of the world). Why is that a thing?
Since all parameters of any fill are in archicad, could this tool just grab the "PATTERN UNIT" as the measurable distance and display 1, and let me scale much more easy to what I need from there?
Why do I have to do crazy math (aka how many patterns I have in 39 3/8" and how many I have to achieve...) or simply (more often then none) winging it and fiddle with the damn thing until I get a visual match?
Is that hard to implement?
I found no discussion on this, which tells me that something may be wrong with me or the way I do things. Can you customize that and I am all out of touch (getting older takes me there...)?
