My thoughts.... How would you get from the west coast to say Japan or China without going all the way across the USA if the earth was indeed flat? Or from the east coast to Europe if the cut off point is on that side of a flat earth? Maybe it's not a sphere, maybe it's more of an egg shape, maybe it's closer to the shape of a D20, I personally don't know. But in my opinion, it's not flat. Anyone can feel free to disagree with me but I'm not a subscriber to this theory at this point in time
Just imagine you split the globe map at Antarctica and folded it flat. Then how would you get there? You will find the flight paths they already take make more sense that way.
All they did to create the globe is stretch the flat earth map around a ball.
All "flat" maps are projections of a sphere, as was known from their origination. The Mercator projection, with which we are all familiar, was first presented in 1569. It is more accurate to say that the projection unwrapped the Earth surface from a ball to a plane.

or rather think that the north pole is in the middle of everything.
And Antarctica is the ice wall.
