There are settings on surveyor equipment gps to go into a curved mode if some sortbut that is just an algorithm to spit out the same answers. It's never used
I'm pretty sure you are playing 24D chess with the smooth brains, but just in case people don't realize that: the shoreline is flat ("continental shelf") because that was the coast line about 12,000 years ago when a lot of the world's water was locked up in glaciers.
