Have never heard the term at any level of school or clinic whether a student, observer or instructor/clinician.

In some local training for both USA & NFHS, trainers would continue to reference the holding zone for the PU in instances where the crew would go into rotation.
My understanding is how you've described the PU's base responsibilities. PU is covering 3rd or home depending upon the situation.
Hoping to clear up some of this confusion locally.

Sounds like MSU mechanics given by local clinicians.
