It’s just a label used because a) it’s the example used to describe the concept and b) we have mountains available for use. Of course it’s exactly the same for a tall tower instead of mountaintop and short tower for a home/fill-in. 

I’m not convinced the concept of a special configuration for a “fill-in” is valid (or at least it is not needed) if the other parts of the network are working correctly (duplicate suppression, repeated packet fratracide, etc). Just configure as WIDEn-N and go. 

Oops, that was an APRS sig comment. :/
