Not a full FE here, yet. They've got some good arguments. What I notice though is that both sphere and flat models have some anomalies that their respective paradigms cannot explain.
To your Sun always looking like a disk point; the Flat Earther would most likely respond by saying the Sun is moving over the Dome (Firmament) above the Earth. This would make the disk appear more round throughout it's trajectory across the sky.
Again: model that. Now you have to explain the trajectory of light from the difference in where that light source is now pointing in order to create that shape. Presenting the firmament as an argument to combat my argument doesn't actually defeat my argument, it makes the other side worse. Because now you have to explain why the sun sets at all.
Clearly the sun moves below the water line from our perspective when we are looking at the sunset over the ocean. It does not move laterally when it's setting. A disc even with the fermament would require the sun to move laterally as it sets from a ground perspective. Furthermore the sun in a disc setting firmament or not will never look like it's going below the water from your perspective.
If it's on the inside of a dome and it maintains its disc shape because of its orientation relative on the dome that doesn't fix anything. Now you have to explain why the sun isn't an ellipse at noon.
Now you have to explain why the night exists.
Again you have to 3D model it and actually like look at the results of those models. Both from an overs perspective and from a ground perspective.
You have to explain why something that is flying looks like it's going underneath something that you know that you are above. When you know that thing is above you still.
You have to remember that you were talking about a flat plane when you're talking about this stuff. In a flat plain scenario like that if it looks like the sun collided with the ocean that would literally mean that the sun collided with the ocean.
There are no tricks of perspective on a flat plane.
As the sun descends it will create a tangent into the horizon. The perspective lines nearly merge, causing the receding body to appear to intersect the horizon from the bottom up. Next the light of the receding sun is dimmed to blackness by a non-transparent atmosphere.
Draw a picture.
This is false. Perspective makes all sorts of objects "disappear" into the distance.
Give an example.
Light posts getting shorter and disappearing into the distance. A flock of birds flying away from you. Almost any object that starts close and moves farther away will "appear" to disappear into the distance. This is Perspective in action.
