I doubt it is because they are easier to maintain.  Like packet nodes, cell
sites should NOT be in high coverage areas when they begin to be heavily
populated.  It's fine when they first start out, but when they get used a
lot they need to come down to lower altitude to decrease coverage and put
more of them in to fill in the gaps.  It's a natural progression.
