Does anyone have an idea how I could best or most sensibly fence the boundary considering the slope? I was thinking of an 80cm (31.5 inches) double wire mesh fence in gray. We both like that, but with a new slope height of 80cm (31.5 inches), wouldn’t that be pointless? Higher would probably look like a prison wall because of the L-shaped concrete blocks.

In the first photo, you can see their gutter, which sits right on the upper edge of your slope. In other words, their windows (if any) on that side are barely usable. I believe their enthusiasm for tall planting close to the boundary is quite limited.
It should be mentioned that his surveyor made an error when measuring the elevation of his plot. In other words, the surveyor measured 70cm (28 inches) too low. That’s why his house is so low. As a result, he also had to install taller L-shaped retaining walls at the base.
Honestly, I don’t mind his view being affected due to this planning mistake. I didn’t dig my foundation that deep.
He also could have signed off on 1m (3 feet 3 inches) of L-shaped retaining walls above ground level instead of the current 60cm (24 inches), so I don’t see a problem there.
Since the development plan doesn’t specify anything about fencing, the Baybo regulations likely apply, meaning more than 80cm (31 inches). This would also fit well with the height of the neighboring boundary.

How is that possible – did he take the prefix "ver" too literally – then "approximate estimator" would be more fitting – isn’t this a profession that requires certified expertise (???)
If @Escroda is reading: how could such a huge discrepancy realistically occur?

Well, the 60cm (2 feet) marked by the neighbor in our submitted site plan actually comes from the neighbor’s own submitted plan, and as you can see, it’s not a 60cm (2 feet) L-shaped block. Our architect made a measurement during our “we’d like to know how deep the terrain is” check and found a discrepancy of 5cm (2 inches).
Regarding the last photo: Not only does it have, let’s say, a concrete appearance on the outside, but it also features a terrace on the east side. This means that from around 2 p.m. onward, everything feels shaded. At least, that was my impression in late summer.
Additionally, it’s clear that many people in the development didn’t really coordinate with each other. As a result, some neighbors have simply blocked each other’s views.

Wow, 70cm (28 inches) too deep and then a terrace on the east side. I’d feel like I was digging myself in.
Is a hornbeam hedge with two tensioned support wires enough as a fall protection? I think that would be a reasonable alternative to L-shaped concrete blocks plus welded wire fencing. By the way, the ugliest combination ever.

I don’t find the combination that unattractive. With proper planting, it can be designed to save time and effort. A hornbeam hedge grows endlessly and can be trimmed once or twice a year.
