The DEM has got to be considered very preliminary near "feature 5" (ie the brightest bright spot). For one thing we may be seeing more PSF than real structure, which would affect the calculation of elevations. For another, if, as recent reports claim, the brightness of feature 5 varies with time, that could also affect the DEM, since you'd normally assume that to be constant when calculating the elevations.
