Uhm, the same reason the temperature would drop on a globe, the decrease in air pressure, and less sun reflecting off the surface, etc. What, do you imagine that the FE models holds that the sun is 20,000 feet above the surface? Relatively small increase in proximity to the sun doesn't suffice to cancel out the cooling due to lower air pressure and other factors. When the atmosphere is thinner, there's less matter for the sun's raise to excite and therefore convert into heat (heat is caused by vibrating molecules).
See, the Glober attitude is that they've already decided that the earth is a globe/ball and so they just keep slinging enough manure at the wall with the hope that some of it will stick.
Don't you FE-ers have a veideo showing a plane flying above clouds with the sun below proving flat earth, when it really proves a globe earth?
You often come across like you have already decided the earth is flat and keep slinging manure hoping some of it sticks. Seems to me like the FE-ers often accuse GE-ers of the things they themselves do, but hope that making the accusation first will somehow prove them right.
