• When you remove variables under the configuration options in a
  coach view, the parent coach retains the reference to the bound
  variable. If you manually remove this configuration option on
  the Variables tab, the human service fails and you see an error
  indicating that the local variable, input parameter, or output
  parameter is undeclared.
