For that to be true there would be plenty of places where it's falling. Are there?

  there absolutely are, a google away https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/ https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/ But they are generally rising, just not more than compared with pre-industrial era.

    I mean, "plenty" isn't really true based on that link. A best you could say "a few, in areas that are losing glaciers, which is expected due to basic physics"

    That map clearly shows that only a few locations are experiencing a fall, so neither "plenty" nor summing to zero as claimed. But I'm interested to learn more about the evidence that the pre-industrial trend was the same, since my inexpert googling suggests otherwise, eg "Exceptionally stable preindustrial sea level inferred from the western Mediterranean Sea" https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abm6185 https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abm6185
