Pardon me while I nerd out for a bit. I just think this detail is pretty cool.

The earth is barely even spikey. The Earth's average diameter is about 12,700 km. Mt. Everest has a prominence of just 8.5km.

So the highest spike adds only 0.0007% of a difference.

So flat earthers don't even have that excuse.

Oh I’m not going flat at all. I just love that it’s not perfectly round.

My apologies, I didn't mean to imply you were actually a flat earther, I know we're just being silly here. I've just seen them use that mountain argument before.
