Review Comment:
   Would be great to add also a bad example where variable is also (wrongly) used as parameter:
   ```
   bash_command="echo variable foo=${Variable.get('foo')}"  # DON'T DO THAT
   env={"foo_env": Variable.get('foo')}, # DON'T DO THAT
   ```
   
   And another example, where we show how you CAN use Variable.get in @task - decorated code.
   
   ```
   @task
   def my_task():
        var = Variable.get('foo')   # this is fine
        print(var)

   Make sure to use variable with template in operator, not in the top level code.
   ```
