Can someone please explain to me why I ***can't*** do this?

CODE >>>>
  #declare myVector = <1,2>

  atan2(myVector.y,myVector.x)
<<<< CODE

Parse Error: Expected 'operand', uv vector identifier found instead

But why I ***CAN*** do this?

CODE >>>>
  #declare myVector = <1,2>;
  #declare xValue = myVector.x;
  #declare yValue = myVector.y;

  atan2(yValue,xValue)
<<<< CODE

Works just fine!

Isn't myVector.x a plain float value that can be used wherever
a float is required?
