Indeed the model I used was simplistic.
I doubt Ocean area would change much with sea level rise on a percentage basis.
A more realistic model would have to try to make a better guess at the amount of permanent ice. The South Polar ice cap isn't going away completely because (1) with a six-month darkness, it will remain cold enough to hold ice (2) enormous storms in the Southern Ocean will generate plenty of precipitation over the pole.
