But you can literally see the curvature in your own picture.

Do you realize how much "little" would be massive if applied to scale of Earth in OP?

you know we have the math to calculate at what point the earth curves. at the high altitude OP is posting we should see curve

That depends on a lot of things, including, but not limited to:
lens magnification
lens disortion
lens correction in camera
lens correction in post
honesty in post processing

Photos can be altered and there are no straight reference objects in the photo to add weight to the validity of the image. Even if there was curve in the original image it could have been "corrected" to account for lens distortion with the horizon as reference.
This image is not a good argument either way because it doesn't stand up to the same scrutiny that a similar image showing curve would.
