Your simplistic use of zero altitude in Starry Night in "checking alignnments " was not available to the "ancients or advanced beings " .They had to put up with real world which is in accord with everyone else who "checks alignments " , and discovers that the horizon is taken into consideration when there is an alignment .
How do you imagine a zero horizon was calculated when you are confronted by a hill and why would you anyone even consider doing such a thing ?
Provide one example of an astronomical alignmnet that is accepted by any reputable archaeoastronomer where the real altitude is ignored and a zero altitude replaces it .

The sun does not "pass" the ideal horizon at Manhattanhenge it "passes " the real horizon .

Alexander's birth date was July 21 not July 13 .
