Of all the HF antennas one might reasonably make out of wire or

Ground-mounted quarter-wave vertical? Horizontal dipole at a height of

done computer modelling, to seek an answer to this question but I am
not finding any information.

If all things are set up properly, normally the 5/8 will give the
strongest
ground wave for a single element. You have very little if any true
ground
wave from a horizontal antenna. You do have a space wave, but it's
not
quite the same.
