Yes, true but we all do it for different reasons. It’s not wet where I’m at. I do it to keep trees planted at the proper depth, I can see better, and it won’t sink past ground level on the mound. If it does even become level with the ground, OK by me. I just don’t want it deeper where water can puddle.
Users here also have planted in amended holes and later dug them out to move and the roots stayed in the good soil only. It’s super important to use as much native soil, or worse as possible. Never better. See this thread.
