well, geographic location of the continents for one would be greatly matter in this case. and if the continents were all together (or mostly together) as the theory states then the "world flood" is even more plausible isnt it? especially if we take it to be 22500000 years old version the world age?
notice, i'm stating these as facts. just trying to present the flipside.

the amount of water still wudnt be any different and still insufficient to flood even a significant portion of this landmass.
