Low mound vs Standard 10"

First off I am not trying to renew a debate about the effects of the 10" mound height on pitch velocity. I'm
Just bugging all the baseball brains out there on fastball trajectory from a substantial mound vs a low (less desirable) bump (pun intended).

Example: A 6'5 guy throwing cheddar at 87-88 from a low mound bordering on flat ground. Do you think the batter sees flatter trajectory (compared to a 10" mound) and thus had easier to hit pitches. curious about thoughts on run, trajectory and difficulty in this scenario.

Thanks
