LOOKUP documentation mismatch

The formula documentation:

 

http://help.smartsheet.com/articles/775363-using-formulas

 

gives these as the arguments:

 

LOOKUP(value, collection, return_column_index, collection_match)

 

while the Template for Formula examples gives these arguments:

 

LOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_range, return_column_index, range_lookup)

 

The fourth argument (collection_match) is clear in the doc but unclear in the example (range_lookup -- when there is already a lookup_range)

 

Please update the example template to match the clearer documentation.

 

This request applies throughout the template example - if there is a reason for there to be a different naming convention in the examples than that of the doc, I would love to hear it.
