Are you meaning to ask about "cumulonimbus" cloud?
If so, the reason is that the base is very low...usually between 1000m and 3000m above the ground. But the top if very high, between 12km and 18km depending on conditions and where it's located (tropics versus midlatitudes).
So a cumulonimbus cloud spans all three layers and therefore cannot be classified to one single layer.

Usually the height of the base of a cloud is only taken for classifying a cloud as low, medium or high.So, a cumulonimbus cloud may be considered as a low cloud.

Are you asking about Christopher Columbus clouds?
They only come around one day a year.
If your talking about Columbo clouds, well they kinda look like Peter Falk...
