Validating Admission Policy — Variable composition
If an expression grows too complicated, or part of the expression is reusable and computationally expensive to evaluate, you can extract some part of the expressions into variables.

If an expression grows too complicated, or part of the expression is reusable and computationally expensive to evaluate, you can extract some part of the expressions into variables. A variable is a named expression that can be referred later in variables in other expressions.
A variable is lazily evaluated when it is first referred. Any error that occurs during the evaluation will be reported during the evaluation of the referring expression. Both the result and potential error are memorized and count only once towards the runtime cost.
The order of variables are important because a variable can refer to other variables that are defined before it. This ordering prevents circular references.
The following is a more complex example of enforcing that image repo names match the environment defined in its namespace.
With the policy bound to the namespace default, which is labeled environm
