Historically, people discovered that unnice barbarian horde people can't jump and/or fly 2 stories under normal non-trebuchet related circumstances so therefore have to climb. Climbing up a wall usually means siege ladders. Siege ladders need a good footing. The angle of a high hill is not condusive to heavy loads IE 10 guys on a siege ladder or people in armor.
Also, It is easier to go from C to D(refer to diagram below) than it is to go from B to A.

``B```C __ D
This is because of something I'd like to call the force of downness which pulls things inexplicably in this direction(diagram below).

Fighting isn't about winning, it's about depriving your enemy of all options except to lose.
