Textfields don’t have intrinsic content size, so the content hugging etc makes 
no difference. Neither does ‘space’. So you have two things in the line which 
have an inequality but don’t have the constraints of lower rank which content 
hugging etc add in. Which makes the layout ambiguous. 

Fix the second distance instead of making it variable and make the label of 
variable width (>=) and left or right align it so it’s effectively the same as 
having a variable space. That should work.
