Why does the sun sink below the horizon at sea? On a flat plane where the sun orbits a central point, it would never set like that - only shrink to a distant point in the sky.
Yes, you can use a digital camera to see boats out at see that have disappeared to the human eye. What you leave out is that if you keep watching through the camera, the ship continues to disappear from the bottom up. What would cause that?
Edit: And as already discussed, 8 meters per square mile is a calculation for a smooth ball and not an oblate spheroid with many variations in elevation.
Our of curiosity, what would you need to see in order for your view to change?
I'll tell you mine. I would need to personally see either the ice wall from an elevation that makes it possible to see that it is not simply an iceberg or a continental shelf cliff, or I would need to see the armature that holds and moves the sun or moon.
For me, it’s largely about the lack of curvature as seen across the stretch of water, as explained above
Radius 3959 miles, surface must curve at a certain rate, and we observe that it doesn’t
I had seen many videos of others doing the same online and I was open to the idea so i went to see for myself and confirmed that yep the math doesn’t check out
Also, in these years since I started following the topic, the moon missions we’ve seen and any other space project has only confirmed my suspicion that nasa and the rest of them are one hundred percent lying about what they’re doing
I’d go off further but I’m short on time and really they’re not the smoking gun
If you do live near a large body of water, keep it in mind and go test it for yourself
But when things disappear from the bottom up at the horizon at see it indicates curvature. Maybe not enough curve for a perfect sphere, but no one's claiming it's a perfect sphere. If there was no curvature at all the whole image would dwindle to a point, but we clearly see objects disappear over the horizon at see from the bottom up.

The earth is smoother than a cue ball, relatively speaking
We’re observing across a span of water so your mountains and valleys doesn’t factor anyways
perspective and ocular resolution to answer your comment above about the sun disappearing
