why at home to body tag?

Why is home tag linked to body, as body is a generic tag encapsulating whole displayed body on the page, can we say it is equal to "right to top"?

I believe the scroll link change effect takes place when the scroll hits the very top of of the element thus on every page load the viewport starts at the very top of the body thus identifying it as home is relevant here to the effect that we would need.
