Yes you are very right.

MTOW is always the same regardless of airport, mountains or ambient conditions. MTOW might be structurally calculated but be advised that a lot of operators reduce the manufacture MTOW for economics, cause landing fees are paid on MTOW basics.

RTOW depends on several variables. It is also known as OTOW, PTOW and few papers call it also MTOW (confussing)
