Dynamic Column Filtering

Just want to get thoughts on the current column filtering in the new table report:

Example 1:  When viewing a table report,  if I filter by Column A I notice that the selections in other column filters do not dynamically update

Example 2:  From a summary pie chart, upon clicking one slice I drill down to the same table report, with Column A filtered (same as was done in Example 1), but then the selection in other columns do dynamically filter.

Example 2 makes sense to me-  curious more about Example 1 and if other folks see the benefit of having the other column selections dynamically filter.  (or if I'm missing something and this is already possible somehow)

Thanks

    Dynamic filters have never dynamically changed based on the user selecting a choice.  So that would be a User Voice enhancement request.  There would likely be performance implications as the system would need to dynamically re-query all the records in the filtered report to determine the valid choices for the other filters, so that could be a lot of processing on a large report.  So it's not an easy ask.
