In case the point about compression needs illustrating:

Here are two shots of the horizon, both taken from Snowdon on the same day (though unfortunately pointing in different directions). One was shot at 230mm, one was shot at 10mm. The latter has been cropped, and the former has been downsized to the same resolution.

It should be clear that “compression” is not a product of focal length, only of perspective.
