Yeah, for cases like maps it works, but most everyone that draws don't do bird eye view drawings. I'm just saying, I think it's more natural for people to draw scenes on 2D planes, and converting that to 3D Z as "depth" makes more sense. Although all the reasons I've heard for Z as height also makes sense to me now.
