Hi @TeamDman
It is true we don't yet support "nested expressions". In your example, the "outer expression" under locals is object, as indicated by the { ... }. To put it very bluntly, IntelliSense currently only reliably works after the first =.

This is all work in progress as we track it under hashicorp/terraform-ls#496 which is in turn part of a bigger epic tracked in #641

As I believe this work to do is already covered in the mentioned issue, I'm going to close this one as a duplicate, but feel free to comment there, if there's anything you believe it does not cover and is related.
