Beamwidth scaling factor inverted?

It seems that the scaling of beamwidth (beam_width_alongship
and beam_width_athwartship
) based on the center frequency of each ping wrt the nominal frequency of a given channel is inverted here?
pyEcholab/echolab2/instruments/EK80.py
Lines 4770 to 4771 in 40aa1fe
In the above implementation, the higher the center frequency, the larger the beamwidth, which is the opposite of what should happen.
As a contrast, the scaling of angle_sensitivity_athwartship
and angle_sensitivity_athwartship
(proportional to the wavenumber) is correct:
pyEcholab/echolab2/instruments/EK80.py
Lines 4796 to 4797 in 40aa1fe
In the above implementation, the higher the center frequency, the higher the sensitivity, as expected.
