What is the sacred meaning of swapping ma_shift and ma_method variable in MQL5?

//MQL5
int  iEnvelopes( 
   string              symbol,            // имя символа 
   ENUM_TIMEFRAMES     period,            // период 
   int                 ma_period,         // период для расчета средней линии 
   int                 ma_shift,          // смещение индикатора по горизонтали 
   ENUM_MA_METHOD      ma_method,         // тип сглаживания 
   ENUM_APPLIED_PRICE  applied_price,     // тип цены или handle 
   double              deviation          // отклонение границ от средней линии 
   );

//MQL4
double  iEnvelopes( 
   string       symbol,           // имя символа 
   int          timeframe,        // таймфрейм 
   int          ma_period,        // период 
   int          ma_method,        // метод усреднения 
   int          ma_shift,         // сдвиг средней 
   int          applied_price,    // тип цены 
   double       deviation,        // отклонение (в процентах) 
   int          mode,             // индекс линии 
   int          shift             // сдвиг 
   );

How can I increase the tick history in the window? Previously, when there was a lot of volatility, there were more and less ticks, but now it's like it's fixed.

Essentially yes, but in fact it corresponds to the documentation

Essentially yes, but it actually matches the documentation

Funny, I wonder why half is normal and half is not, thank goodness it's not hieroglyphics...

That was interesting, too. There's a formula in the answer to how it counts.

Is there an easy way to convert a tpl template with objects from MT4 to MT5? It would be great if MT5 could import quadruple templates, but apparently it's not the case - object properties are different and it's not very convenient to edit the file manually to find out what changed and how.
