This is after all quite common practice, and in a function like this
where several variables are needed, I would argue that this is more
readable than the alternative. Is there some convention I'm not aware of?

This is part of the refactoring, mixing signed and unsigned variables in
operations is more risky than having same type.

Ok fixing this and other occurances.

Perhaps the comment was not well formulated. I suggest changing to
/* Tick to offset multiplier */
as that it what it is primarily used for. Would that be okay for You?
Thanks,
