No, it implies (to non-pilots) that Towers are in control of other
fields. Remember, most laymen believe that ATC is in charge of every
plane every second, and are surprised when they hear about an airplane
taking off without filing a flight plan.

I think it's safe to say that the average layman has never heard of
ATC or flight plans. They just think that pilots take off and fly to
their destination. They only call ATC when a mad bomber explodes
something in the starboard can, injuring a pregnant and pretty
stewardess, or when the top of the plane is ripped off and they need
Charleton Heston to bring them in safely.
