I haven't really considered saddles to be road or mtb. For that matter, cx and gravel also aren't saddle categories in my mind.

I don't know what makes a saddle be categorized as a road, cx, or mtb saddle. I figure the shapes are really in the end just different in order to accommodate each of our unique posteriors.
Well, that was a tongue in cheek comment mostly although it really is categorized as a MB saddle. I got it mainly because the yellow color with blue logo and trim matched the look of the bike. And the few Avocets I've have are all quite comfortable. For me saddles are defined by comfortable vs uncomfortable. Any other "label" doesn't matter.
