Inlets and outlets don't have any explicit numbering. Internally - in
the .pd file - they are numbered starting from 0, but this hasn't any
impact on how you specify them in the help-file.

The dollarargs ($1, $2, $3) do not relate to inlets at all, but to the
arguments given to an abstraction.

Am I addressing your question?
