Let’s call what you’re doing what it is, ignorance. Your video conflates an optical vanishing point with the true horizon. The optical vanishing point is a function of the limitation of the human eye. The bottoms of objects don’t disappear to view, the whole object becomes too small to be distinguished.
A landmass like an island doesn’t become too small. And you see its heights at a distance but you don’t see its coastline.
