    Huh, I didnt even think about the word sea, as a non native English speaker I didnt think of it. I get the argument that the baltic sea and the Meditarranean are both seas and not oceans, but I looked it up too and, yeah the definitions flow into each other (lol). (Also, greetings from someone who lives a few kilometers away from the baltic sea).

      Oh lol it didn’t even occur to me that this might be a language thing rather than a… uh, different kind of language thing lol.

      And greetings back from Canada, about as far as you can get from the Baltic Sea in the northern hemisphere lol. Actually, that looks more like Alaska or Hawaii. Lol Russia is too big, it’s on the Baltic Sea but is also one of the farthest points from it in the northern hemisphere.
