It is now fixed and as a result, the planet.pmtiles file size is now only 332 GiB (down from 657 GiB in v0.0.12), and the overall output PMTiles files are together now only 9.1 TiB (down from 11.8 TiB).

In Mapterhorn Terrain v0.0.13 we now apply vertical rounding not only on the max zoom level but also on all lower zoom levels. This was the idea from the start but only now Mike Barry noticed that we did not do it.
