No idea, if that's a regional thing that "Hochdeutsch" primarily means Southern German to you, but here in South Germany, I doubt anyone would be aware of your definition and everyone understands "Hochdeutsch" to mean "Standard High German".

My dictionary does list the Southern German meaning, but it's listed as the secondary meaning.
