unexplained return of a simple function

Why wouldnt you use iHigh and iHighest?
something like:
iHigh(pSymbol,pPeriod,iHighest(pSymbol,pPeriod,MODE_HIGH,pBars,pStart));
which would return the high of the timeseries at the index returned by iHighest.
//============================================================================== void OnTick() { Print ( "METHOD 1 " , HighestHigh ( Symbol () , Period () , 0 , 8 ) ) ; Print ( "METHOD 2 " , HIGHEST_HIGH ( Symbol () , Period () , 0 , 8 ) ) ; } //============================================================================== //============================================================================== double HIGHEST_HIGH ( string SYMBOL , ENUM_TIMEFRAMES PERIOD , int START = 0 , int BARS = 8 ) { int INDEX = iHighest ( SYMBOL , PERIOD , MODE_HIGH , BARS , START ) ; return iHigh ( SYMBOL , PERIOD , INDEX ) ; } //==============================================================================
