The engines don't care what altitude they are run at - it only cares what the air pressure, temperature and humidity is. Sea level at 30.15 inches baro is exactly the same as 4500 ft at 30.15inches, (Which is exactly where the Barometer sits for Reno and Oakland, Ca today!) as far as the engine is concerned. . To me, an altitude adjustment is just as necessary as a temperature and humidity adjustment
