This is what that rule implies, yes. However, if you look at the list of

system sizes (don't remember which side it is, but directly after the 
example design of the size 4 hover tank) that list specifies the GSM/L
as 
2 cap.points and the GSM/H as 4 cap.points. I think that this is an 
oversight - ie, I agree with your interpretation - yet those who claim 
that a GSM/H uses 4 cap.points no matter how it is mounted has rather 
strong support in the rules too.
