Why can't I set Snapper's tolerance to a feature attribute?

I want to create a user parameter for source units, then set a snapping tolerance attribute value based on that parameter. Essentially I want to avoid having to set the snapping tolerance if the source unit of measure changes. Is there another way to achieve this?

Usually snapping involves more than one feature.

What value is going to be used in that case?

You can always use a scripted parameter to convert a private user parameter.

For example: if your private parameter is set to meter units, you can create a scripted parameter to convert that to other units (mm, km) depending on a user choice parameter.
