We can have a perfect line of reasoning that if earth was straight but not round then we could see till the boundary of earth and then we could also have boundaries conditions in the earth where if any sailor tried to sail his boat at that direction he would never be able to return because he would have fallen from the earth
but this picture of earth coincides with your limited view limited only till the horizon and thats the reason I couldn't see my girl friend home who lives about 700km far from me as the earth curves about a inch at every 6km.
