The current definition
The mean of the ratio of the intensities of all reflections in this shell to the mean of the standard uncertainties of the intensities of all reflections.
sounds very confusing and doesn't describe the actual metric. Better would be probably something like
The mean of the ratio of the symmetry-unique, merged intensity to its standard uncertainty for all reflections within the given diffraction limits.
