Common sense mostly.

I had mentioned starting down sooner and they *suggested* that I stay
up there until farther south of the mountains.

It was pitch black below. I took their advice. They kept me up there
by kinda, sorta, indicating, it might be safer until well clear of the
mountains where I could remain in contact closer to the airport.


Then they didn't keep you up, you elected to remain at altitude.

Their advise kept me up there. :-))
Both correct from a semantics approach.

I know where you're headed, but I still prefer these terms.
