I'd say having a tall unit sticking out of some terrain feature not be visible when it should is a MUCH BIGGER FAIL than the inconsistency of having it visible while the ground is shaded darker than the other visible surroundings.

The LOS colouring relevance as an indicator of LOS radius is also important and boosts the case for viewing tall stuff within it even if it's base is occluded by terrain.
