No sailor uses a flat earth model to navigate.

Your model of the earth is literally the UN flag.

Snipers have to take earth curvature into account when they shoot.

Yeah it's a psyop. That's why there are so many videos from anon content creators. The pysop is hitting you right in the face.

No sailor uses ANY model to navigate. Models are not used for navigation.

That isn't a model - that's a flag. You seem confused.

Lol. Find a sniper and ask them this question. How far do you think snipers shoot anyway?!

I describe them as agents and products of the flat earth psyop. Some are agents, some are products. Content creators have their own obvious motives - which ALSO have nothing to do with the shape of the world. There are many copycats.

I agree - it is heavily advertised (i.e. heavily funded).

Model: a description or analogy used to help visualize something that cannot be directly observed.

So yes, ship navigation uses the globe as a model for navigation. If they could directly observe where they needed to go, they wouldn't rely on a model.

That isn't a model - that's a flag. You seem confused.

Consult a dictionary next time moron.

.338 Lapua Magnum has a firing range of 1.5 kilometers. So that's a horizontal drop of about 4 inches from the horizon that they have to account for.

That may be your personal definition, but is not the definition of that word in any context. Specifically, when discussing this topic - model means scientific model.

In any case, no models are used for sailing/traveling of any kind; your personal definition included.

Consult a dictionary

Practice what you preach! A flag is not a model either. Even if it were, you said it was "my model" which is also wrong.

So that's a horizontal drop of about 4 inches from the horizon that they have to account for.

Talk to an actual sniper. You are repeating nonsense. No sniper accounts, or needs to account, for any such thing. Even if such curvature existed, they don't need to adjust for it because they are never shooting blindly at targets hidden behind the horizon - that would be silly. Beyond that, other factors would be orders of magnitude more influential - like wind...

I literally quoted the definition from a dictionary.

But if you want to use the more specific term "scientific model" then I am even more correct:

"Scientific models are representations of objects, systems, or events used to explain and predict the behavior of real objects or systems"
