No, assigning arbitrary numbers to symbols is precisely what one should not 
do.
Number 10 implies some quantity which is two times number 5, and it would be 
incorrect to assign quantities to symbols because that quantity has not 
physical meaning.
A=1, D=4. What is the logic behind claiming that D is 4 times A?
