I don't have a problem calling 4.xx gear "higher" than a 6.17 gear.
It is, however, patently inaccurate to state that a 4.xx to 1 set of gears are a "higher ratio" than a 6.17 to 1 set of gears. That would defy the basic rule of mathematics.

Transmission gearing uses same logic, high gear is 1:1 (unless you have an over drive i.e. 1 : 0.76), LOW gear in 1 : 4.03 (in my T5).
