I thought they were referring to the fact that under the ice its an archipelago, so if the ice melts it will have southern coasts again

Valid point. It’s a shame humanity wouldn’t be around to confirm. lol

If it melts, they'd all be northern coasts.

It's referencing the pole swap.

Since it's an archipelago underneath then most, if not all, of those islands would have a southern coast. The only way to not have a southern coast is to have the landmass directly on top of the pole, which could only happen for one island (if no ice is present)
