Never underestimate how special and pretty Tolkien elves are!

But, yeah, mostly. If you assume Legolas seeing beyond the curvature of the planet is just a writer's error and don't insist every detail needs to be correct, but elves still don't interact with the world quite the same way Men do, and that's presumably even more the case for Maia.
