There was an error in my calculations, and I’ve corrected the diagram upthread.
The apparent distance of more than 60 M that I had previously calculated for a static observer at 12 M looking at a ship near the horizon turned out to be a mistake too, due to the same error. The true value is close to 10 M, which makes a lot more sense.
