How Much Is "Moderate"/''Low"/"High" Carb/Fat Diet?

You see these terms thrown around a lot, and just like anything I'm sure everyone has a slightly different interpretation of just what it means, so I'd like to see what you guys think about it.

When I see "Low" xxxxx diet I think around .25-.5g per pound of that macro.
When I see "Moderate" xxxxx diet I think around 1g per pound of that macro.
When I see "High" xxxxx diet I think around 1.5-2g per pound of that macro.

Who agrees, or feels differently? Do you think the numbers for "Low" change depending on which macro you're referring to? Is "Low" fat a different ratio than "Low" carb?

Just some food for thought. No pun intended :)
 
Im an ectomorph, and for me high is around 500 carbs a day, maybe more.

Moderate for me is about 300-350.

Low for me is 150-200. I never got lower to 150. Ive hit ketosis at 150 carbs a day. If I go lower, I lose muscle FAST!

endomorphs would obviously be a very different story.
