Unreal Engine 5 Puzzle Example Block Spacing has no effect

I've recently begun toying with Unreal Engine (UE5 Early Access) and I started with the Puzzle Example Template. In the PuzzleBlockGrid blueprint, there is a variable called BlockSpacing that is used to calculate the (X,Y) coordinates a block before spawning it.

This is the blueprint. enter image description here enter image description here

I collapsed the logic for calculating the position to tidy up the graph a bit. I've highlighted the path to the variable in question.

Changing the value of Block Spacing has no effect on the placement of the blocks. I have verified this by printing the calculated values to the screen (not shown in pictures). I have tried changing Block Spacing to a wide range of values (10^10, 1, 0, 10^-10, -100: Default was 400). No matter the value entered, the calculated values are always the same. The only way I could get a different result is to bypass the Block Spacing and Multiply nodes; in which case, all positions are calculated to be (0,0).

Am I missing something?

Just FYI the calculated coordinates that I get are: enter image description here

I realized that this is happening because Block Spacing is public and the value was set in the level map's viewport editor details pain, which overrides the initial value set in the blueprint.
