Its because if the only tool you have is a hammer, then every problem looks
like a nail !!!! LOL
Seriously, labels are a bummer, and this is but one example of the point.

I'll say it again folks: these are misleading labels!
A load of 2+j10 needs the **same** configuration as a load of
1000+j1000: shunt C across the load.
A load of 2+j9 needs the **same** configuration as a load of 49-j1000:
shunt C across the source.
Where's the sense in distinguishing these configurations as "High
Impedance" and "Low Impedance"?
