It was merely a quibble, Jack. Shorelines can be deceptive measures of
"level" since the may "fall away" from you or bend closer. In any
event, I tend to think of off-kilter in terms of degrees of rotation,
since that is normally how I try to fix mine in Photoshop. I sometimes
make use of the selection rectangle to drag horizontal and vertical
line checkers where I want to see if something is out of whack. Quick
and easy and you can move the selection area around with arrow keys if
you want a perfect alignment with some part of your image.
