consider_river Enable to favor a route along rivers or sees

Maybe "Favo[u]r routes along rivers or lakes" instead? Or "Prefer"? But what about the sea? Not sure whether "water bodies" would be the proper word. Maybe ask ChatGPT to rephrase ;-)

More importantly, please elaborate the option's explanations, e.g. "Cost for going downhill" does really not add anything to "downhillcost". My underlying question would be why "dowhill" has an associated cost whereas "uphill" doesn't.

This must be fixed in the respective profile itself, not in BRouter-Web.

The first part of this issue should be fixed in abrensch/brouter#660.

The logic behind this is described in the "The elevation buffer (From Poutnik's glossary )" part of the profile developers guide., which probably cannot be summarized in one sentence. But I agree that "Cost for going downhill" is far from optimal.
