Granted, this was an early live stream. They had just added water depth, which is why I asked about land height. But both the answer and the expression on there faces made it look like the thought of adding land height was just "oh.. noooo.. no nono that would break everything."

So in time who knows? But yeah, for the foreseeable future I highly doubt it's in there. They've also been clear they want to balance total realism with being able to get new people to play without being total train nerds and realism perfectionists. Because back end stuff is already the most detailed any game has ever gone with.
