This seems to make the incorrect assumption that manpower doesn't cost
money. It does. When it comes to the level of deploying surfaces
within Wikimedia, it almost always requires vetting, support and the
access rights of Wikimedia personnel.
I also note that the volunteer run tiles service of wmf labs already
provide hill shading as an optional layer
