Mult Operator
The "*" operator covers numeric multiplication.
Caveat on constant zero operands:
That a constant zero as a left operand is handled specially and will shortcut the multiplication evaluation to zero, with the right operand being never evaluated. When the left operand is a dynamic zero, or the constant zero is the right operand, both operands are evaluated.
This caveat was introduced to allow using a "0 * something" as a formula shortcut to zero the evaluation and dependencies of "something" without removing it from the formula text.
