I've set up a few missions in the FMB over the Channel purely so that I don't have to look at the landscape.

I don't expect anyone will pause in their criticism and scorn as they point out the relative lack of importance of this issue in their opinion. Well fine.

Also, once again, the fixes to terrain really do not need to consume any more PC resources than currently. It's more a matter of rearranging and tweaking the presentation.

I'm prepared to bet that in a year or two when the game has been tweaked, repaired, reworked and had features reinstated, that most people will look back at how it is now and agree with much of what the critics are saying.
I think the landscape we have at present is awful too. As you can see from Krupi's picture and if you fly into the UK the immediate, overwhelming impression is how green everything is. The technicolour dream coat landscape we have now is a let down compared to the sometimes jaw-dropping impression of flying and fighting that this sim can deliver when it all comes together. However, there is a lot more that needs working on at present than the landscape.
For the moment, I just don't look down!
