Hi Scott Lamb does that mean a story distributed under a Topic page has the "topic name", e.g. "Spirituality" which used to be called a "Tag name" added by Medium to the story's "Topic (formerly Tag) Names?" For example, my story "Here's how to successfully use the 2 main types of anger" was distributed under MENTAL HEALTH. However I myself did NOT allocate "Mental Health" as a Tag to this story.
Please can you confirm does this mean this story would appear in a Search of the Topic Name MENTAL HEALTH and found by the date it was published, which was September 12?

Distribution to Medium’s network
Medium also recommends stories to readers across our website, apps, and emails based on their interests and reading habits.
By default, all stories published on Medium are eligible for further distribution via our recommendations algorithm (we do filter for spam, NSFW, etc). So in addition to being distributed to your audience, your story may also show up in the following places if selected by the algorithm:
• The "For You" section of the Medium homepage for all readers on the web and in our mobile apps.
• In Medium Digest emails: Your story may also appear in the digests of people who don’t follow you, but are interested in the topic you’ve written about.
• On Medium topic pages
So could stories distributed on Medium topic pages have additional Topic Name(s) added to them by Medium and thus appear in the chronological list of stories under that additional Topic Name(s)? OR does "distributed on Medium topic pages' mean something else, like these stories appearing under "Related Stories" for people who Follow the Topic the story was distributed under? Example, my article above would be shown under "Related Stories" on the right to readers who follow MENTAL HEALTH?
