Binding in XAML primitives

I am developing UWP app, and was trying to bind some property to primitive in XAML, and dont find how can I do it. I have a C# class with static values:

 public class DevicePreferences
 {
     public static double InputTextFontSize = App.IsMobileDevice ? 22 : 18;
     public static double TitleTextBoxSize = App.IsMobileDevice ? 20 : 16;
     public static double ImageButtonSize = App.IsMobileDevice ? 40: 35;
 }

and I was looking something like this:

<x:Double x:Key="MyCustomValue">{local:DevicePreferences.TitleTextBoxSize}</x:Double>

I am wondering, is there any way to do something like that?

If you set the DataContext of whatever control you want to bind to the TitleTextBoxSize property, you can bind to it directly as suggested here: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsapps/en-US/e0e426ba-4feb-4571-b80b-7ba8818079b6/uwpstatic-property-binding?forum=wpdevelop

But you can't do something like this:

<x:Double x:Key="MyCustomValue">{local:DevicePreferences.TitleTextBoxSize}</x:Double>

You can only put constant double values inside the <x:Double> element.
