Why this meaning was chosen
Singular جَبَل and plural جِبَال are identified through height, carving, rock, caves, anchoring, removal, pulverization, and comparison with immense waves or cloud masses. جِبِلَّة in two human-population contexts denotes former created multitudes; no Quran-internal bridge to the terrain noun is demonstrated, so it is isolated as a lexical collision.
