I guess the idea is to be able to distinguish between four non-overlapping ranges

min < low < high < max

and still be able to get out in 3M unless Opener's hand is in the top range.

Thanks.
And reading again more closely he did explain low and high, my apologies.

I use a modified losing trick count as a judgment aid in many areas
If you split into
<=8hcp
3♣ <=9.5 3♦ <=9
8+hcp
3♥ <=8.5 3♠ <= 8
and apply some discipline for suit strength versus vulnerability then you can fine tune any raises or steer responder to 3N
