Yes, the banding is "better" because no light is leaking around the Shadow 
Squares. As soon as some leaking occurs, there is some diffuse lighting of 
the night areas, which may lead to interesting effects. Quite inadvertently 
I came across that phenomenon.

The "mountains" are fairly high although scale is difficult to judge here. I 
shall add simple trees to give an idea.
