Describe the solution you would like
Would it be possible in the Descriptive module in JASP that when you move variables to the variables box that only scale and ordinal variables were displayed in the descriptive statistic table. As it does no make any sense that nominal variabels pops up. It would be great if the nominal variabel did not show up in the table and if there was a notification for the user.

Additional context
At least Mode min max missings and valids make sense for nominal. Even mean can have a meaning for dichotomous 0 1 coded ones (relative frequency). So some stuff should be displayed even for nominals.
jasp 0.19.3 still auto-converts nominal text strings to numbers in descriptives:
So a note or something els indicating this auto-conversion to the user would still be usefull.
There was a lot of discussions about this, maybe @vandenman can better handle this issue.
didn't @JohnnyDoorn rewrite this to be different? Or is that still in progress?
