In an earlier mailing today, replying to Sharon Casey, I said-

Thinking about it a bit harder, and perhaps a bit more clearly, it now
seems to me that I got the last bit quite wrong and should really have
said-
"Above an underwater sea-mount made of lead, there would be an increase in
gravity, and the sea-level would be a bit higher there than it would be if
the lump of lead was absent."
That error doesn't affect anything else in the argument, but it's better to
get these things right rather than wrong.
George.
