Just look at the map for LOZ: BOTW. The map also uses colour to dipict changes in height.

How do you know they don't go the other way? There are no height readings..

Basically yes, but useless without knowing the height of each contour line.

Would have been more accurate to say 'how to interpret' contours. 'Reading' them does require elevation data.

Most maps dose have a clarification on the hight of each contour

or color coding if precise height is not required

Yes; the point here being this is an interpretive schematic, not a map.
