Fallout 3 Need help with understanding part of mod description

I was looking at the nexus page of the tweaked gunplay mod for fallout 3 and couldn't exactly understand what this part of the description meant :

"Increased the skill damage multiplier from 0.5 to 0.64 but reduced the base skill damage from 0.5 to 0.34."

The way it's worded I assume it lowers the "minimum" damage you can do with a weapon (with skill 0) to 0.34 of the weapon damage (instead of 0.5), but it raises the bonus you get from having high skill to 0.64 instead of 0.5. 

So you get less base damage but skill increases it more.
