I freely admit I am not sure as there might be several interpretations out there as well. I do not think it is unusual to see a little confusion in this area even though the principals are well understood. Logically if it takes more turns it should be a higher ratio. Fewer a lower ratio.
Again this is subject to corrrection. I have seen what I thought was wrong as well as right too many times to be certain.
