This is true... "coverage" was a poor choice of wording perhaps.
But, having to place a call every once in a while, reception is usually never that far inbetween (except for a very few places). In emergencies, in places where there is no reception, you are usually so far off the beaten track that chances are real slim that anyone on the receiving end would have been able to do anything for you anyways, except for maybe to sooth you and comfort you a bit for being so screwd, but that is probably all.
I guess "far inbetween" is a relative term... I'm personally perfectly ok with reception being a whole day's worth of riding away as I ride most days.
