Actually, they are real tiers, as in not only in look, but in possible affix range. Why do you think people say worthwhile stuff drops in a3-4 Inf?
Also, tier isn't wow acronym, it's word used in any 'hierarchy' system, like rts where it's used to describe how technological advanced unit/building is.
The tiers referred to by blizz are only VISUAL tiers, nothing to do with stats, only looks.
Not 100% true. For example you have some tiers at level 60 (Doom, Sovereign, and Archon). Doom is item level 61, Sovereign is item level 62, and Archon is item level 63 so they certainly do have the potential to come with increased stats.
for exa. what tier is at lvl 32-36 ?
or at whitch lvl the next tier starts?
thanks
