[despite the fact that this is under "rhetorical questions" I will answer it anyways]
Man-holes are round because no matter which way you turn the lid, it will never fit into the round hole (With a slightly smaller diameter). If it were any other shape, like a square or triangle, it would be possible to drop the lid in the hole by turning it diagonally.

What is the obvert elevation of a manhole?
The obvert elevation of a pipe is the elevation of the inner top surface of the pipe (as opposed to "invert" which is the inner bottom surface of the pipe). Invert (and obvert) is usually used in reference to pipe and not manholes, since the invert elevation is where the water flow calculations begin. Based on this interpretation, the obvert (at a manhole) can be measured as the distance from the manhole rim to the inside top of the pipe(s).

Why are man hole covers round?

Why is it eaisier for manhole covers to be round?
Manhole covers are easier to handle and align when they are round because a circular shape cannot fall into the hole it covers, reducing the risk of accidents. Round covers are also easier to roll into place and do not need to be rotated to fit properly. This makes them more practical and efficient for workers who need to access the manhole.
Why does the the manhole cover created round?
A square one would fall through itself but with a round one this is impossible
Why is it better to have a round Manhole cover than a square one?
Round manhole covers are preferred over square ones because they cannot fall into the hole they are covering regardless of their orientation, making them safer for workers and pedestrians. Additionally, round covers are easier to move since they can be rolled, while square covers need to be lifted and aligned to be placed back.
