There's also the problem that on a flat Earth with a close Sun and Moon, the Sun (and Moon) should also appear different sizes throughout the day, not only changing near the horizon. It would change even from one hour to the next, but be easily measurable between, say, 7am and 12 noon.

Not only that, but between summer and winter they would have different sizes in the sky, smaller in the winter than in the summer, even at noon.
One of these days I should really take a couple of photos of moonrise and peak with my 105mm lens as a fixed reference as it is much easier to check the Moon than the Sun (need to get some good ND filters for that), but even when you are lucky enough to get cloud or fog conditions where you can look directly at the Sun during the day it doesn't look larger than when it's at the horizon.

I predict that in the next FE thread the same guy will post the same arguments, from the beginning again, having conveniently ignored all the counter arguments and unaddressed questions from this thread, including all photo, illustrated and video evidence against his arguments.

Honestly, I don't care that much if he is a troll because the claims these people make lead me to learn more about reality through comparing what they state to what I have actually observed and continue to observe through testing their claims.
Kinda fortunately I live near the east coast (unfortunately there are hills between me and it) but some point this summer I'm looking forward to either camping out or getting up at some ungodly time to photograph or film the sunrise over the ocean.
Should be fucking beautiful.
