<< Should not I be a heavy tenor when I have such low notes?>>
I don't think so. A heavy tenor would sound very close to a lyric baritone. Do you? I had a classmate once who was a heavy tenor, while I was a baritone. At several occasions, our common voice teacher mistook one for the other! For example when we sang the Oreste/Pylade duet from "Iphigénie en Tauride", our teacher would correct one of us on a phrase that the other had sung...

I'm a lyric tenor (no question about that) and I too have a lower extention, down to F and lower using vocal fry. Lots of singers have lower or upper extentions of range that are not the "norm" for their voice type.
