You’d have to be in freefall to eliminate the earth’s gravity messing it up, and at this scale surface tension would likely be the overwhelming force so not really fair there anyways. Never mind that those elevations are crazy exaggerated; the differences in the real earth are far less pronounced.
It’s fun to come up with your own disproofs of flat-earth nonsense. Clouds at sunset, for example. There’s no model for light curving through air that would explain the tops of tall clouds staying lit while the bottoms go dark. Any tall structure can provide the same demonstration, and manmade stuctures do it with clear directional shadows on flat surfaces.

A properly scaled model of the earth should scale the water molecules, too.
Oh, good point… I propose a 1:1 model just to eliminate all these issues
