May I put a Question please?: Should the ratio between timeframe analysis and minutes between updates always be approximately the same (1:3 or 1:4)? Or is the fixed setting (15 minutes) suitable for all time frames?

There is no need to maintain a fixed ratio between the analysis timeframe and the update interval (such as 1:3 or 1:4). The 15-minute setting is simply a practical default because it only controls how often the panel refreshes on the screen.
All calculations are performed based on the selected analysis timeframe (e.g., M5, M15, H1) and the available historical data. The update interval does not influence or distort the analysis itself.
You may adjust the refresh interval according to your trading style. If you trade very short timeframes (e.g., M1), you might prefer updates every 5 minutes. If you trade longer timeframes (e.g., H1), 15 or even 30 minutes is usually sufficient.
In short, the fixed 15-minute setting works for all timeframes, but it can be customized for convenience, not for analytical accuracy.
