If we had to guess (of course not good research to be guessing): The typical person working on a field probably believed what the church told them the world looks like. If they ever heard about being on a sphere, they would probably laugh and point to the horizon, saying: "How can Earth be a sphere? Don't you have eyes to see? Look into the distance, all is flat!" and any kind of argumentation, that it is simply so huge, that one cannot see it, would seem to them like a made up story, a lie to further some hidden agenda the explaining person has.
