Truth be told, I might have misread what you said. Now that I think about it, I probably do distinguish the number a little differently (more pushed forward) than a 2 or 4 hits signal as well.
However, the confusion is also generally minimized because, more often than not, the origin of the rally ending whistle is usually pretty obvious, and you shouldn't have an R1 appearing to signal two hits without that referee first whistling.
Sorry for the confusion.
