4) Notice that the new water level has not gone up after the ice melted. If you have a large enough glass and water sample, you might even notice that the water level has gone DOWN slightly.

That's fine for the Arctic, where the ice is floating on the water. But the Antarctic ice is on land, as are the glaciers in Greenland, and around the world.
