Bottom of clouds are flat?

Hi folks

So reading the Wiki again I see another evidence for the world being flat is that "the bottom of clouds look flat". I'm not sure what this means. I would love to know if any FE thinks this sentence in the Wiki is still relevant or wether it should be removed/edited?

I have seen clouds all across Europe, Canada, West and South East Africa, the Middle east, Singapore and Australia and I cannot relate this flat bottom image to any of these locations. As clouds may be hundreds of miles away or a culmination of multiple individual clouds etc I can not see how we from earth could honestly judge the shape of the "bottom" of them. When flying in planes I approach them from the ground and rise up to and through them and never see this flat edge the wiki refers to.

On a further note so what if they were flat? What is the correlation between the bottom of clouds and the shape of the earth? Does this mean the FE predicts that the clouds mirror the ground below? 

Can anyone explain the Wiki's meaning here please?

Many thanks
