Because the terms 'Resolution' and 'Picture Size' do get constantly confused and although interrelated to some degree [Picture Size determines total pixels so affects Resolution] clearly Resolution is comparative and can only be either High or Low when comparing one image to another, or the one image to itself on different size screens, i.e. more or less ppi means higher or lower resolution.
I honestly don't think it's really worth comment in any case because the inference caused by the incorrect interchangeablity of the two terms is so widespread as to make it almost acceptable. Confusing Resolution with overall file size however is not acceptable although it sometime happens. In this case as Caty points out to me in a Visitor Message, she believes that monterra simply means that the two files are for different models with which opinion i agree. However if one file is labeled 'High Resolution' it must be higher compared to something else, hence the possible implication the first is higher res. than the second.
Best we roll with it imo, and simply accept the quirky usage just as we accept VendorID.
