The flat-earth advocates will love it because people from flat states all around will be able to see it scraping the sky and thus the globe theory will be disproved.
No earth curvature to block the line of sight view, only one's own local tall buildings. Or so some say.

BTW, there are no flat-earths in my globe collection.
