These regulations mean little until something happens
A question of its all fine till its not fine

Should a model collide with a transponding aircraft with an altitude readout it would be fairly easy for the AAIB to determine the altitude of the model

if the model was determined to be at 500 feet instead of below 400 feet the regulation would have been breached whether you gauged that by eyesight or not
Remember too GPS is pretty accurate
