because volume and price is different.

How do you compare the price between different index? Is Dow to SP 10 to 1, etc. You cannot. There is no fix ratio.

Because time bars are, just that, time bars. Every minute a new bar will be plotted.

Range bars are plotted in accordance with a predefined range, thus they will vary in numbers and skew the timeline when comparing several instruments.
