Land also rises and falls. It’s falling a lot in Louisiana (9 mm per year) due to subsidence. It’s rising on the west coast at many locations due to the subduction zone where the continental plates meet.
Exactly, & that speaks to my point. Those things are independent of water levels rising or lowering. Which certainly is a thing. There are submerged caves in the Caribbean where humans used to live & make fires in, but when the ice sheets melted and retreated, levels rose several hundred feet to what they are today.
