Line of Sight Oddness

Just found some strangeness with LoS for missile units.
In this image, my horse archers on a straight diagonal can shoot at a unit of foot in an elevated position:
However, the horse archer unit adjacent to it cannot shoot:
I assume the hill corner is obstructing LoS for the second unit (which I've see with other LoS blocking terrain, e.g. trees, which seems inconsistent with the general LoS rules but could still be working as intended). But if that was the case, then surely the first unit would not be able to attack as well as it is also obstructed by the same space.
For reference, both the tile the targeted unit is on and the hill corner are the same elevation level (100).
