A real pilot knows that a sectional is not an instrument. The claim was that
this was done by instruments.


No, it was not.

The discussion was about judging distance and YOU changed the subject to
determining the height of mountains.

A real pilot would know that just by looking at the runway, where it
appears, and its movement relative to the nose of the aircraft.


For me, the part that _doesn't_ move in my field of view is the spot where I'm
going.


And if it doesn't move, the movement relative to the nose of the aircraft
is, wait for it, zero.

What a buffoon.
