Nope..

Maybe we will get a fix from one of our talented creators before we get a fix from ASOBO:

These are not elevations problems they are water polygon problems. The mesh is now so accurate that it would show the exact coastline. However the waterpolygons which flatten the terrain seem to be slightly off from their real world coordinates. And that is why you get those anomalies.

I think you're right. 

New water elevation maps might work. There's one out for Alaska, and three for Norway as mods. They all work fine. There's probably for other places as well.

That sounds promising!

The issues exist in some places even where there is no water, it is a combination of two issues AFIK. Water polygon not aligning to the land or vice versa. Correction zones can be automatically generated, but even the semi-automated process is fairly tedious, requires a lot of back and forth in QGIS. I haven't tired the semi-automated method yet, just fixing small areas at the moment. Sometimes tiny areas of water exist where the spires are, sometimes this is true.
