I didn't come up with the idea to put 300:100 on gears. If you have a huge problem with that, contact the manufacturers and ask them why they use that. Otherwise, if understanding it better would be using "high torque, double torque or whatever", than look for gear set that state something you'll understand. I just try and keep things simple so anyone can understand it, and can apply it to their needs.
