Why would anyone use significantly more power to get a job done using a low 
angle, when the same job could be done with a higher angle and less power?
That makes no sense at all.

I don't know anyone who would intentionally use a more expensive, harder to 
errect, more difficult to maintain, antenna when a less expensive 
alternative would work better.
