I wonder why people are not also flat?

holographic principle is only about the local topology; there could still be effective isomorphisms between neighborhoods emerging within it and various different shapes in higher dimensions.

these things are interesting diversions, although they really are just the modern "how many angels can fit on the head of a pin"

i don't see anything saying what it's about. i think the message stands on its own. and if someone believes in a flat earth, they should speak their mind if they want to. if everyone believed in a flat earth and i believed in a round one, i'd hope to have the courage to say so.

Or actually, I do disagree.

I assume with this you want to imply @benwehrman is courageous to believe in a flat earth:

i'd hope to have the courage to say so.

Looking up the definition of courage:

the ability to do something that frightens one; bravery.

Believing in a flat earth is not courageous, because they have nothing to be frightened of (except maybe getting laughed out the room), it is delusional.

Or do you think @benwehrman is frightened when he confidently talks about globetards?

look at the thumbnail and the description of the video:

sure, I don't disagree, my message also stands on its own

As much as I agree with the message (and I've zapped it!), I find entertaining the idea of a flat earth a complete waste of my personal time. But tbf, I think the message is very important, and should absolutely not be dismissed because we disagree on the shape of the earth...
