1) How accurate are/were the calculations for this model? 2) Does this also take into consideration the vast amounts of water found inside the Earth's crust?

For comparison: the earth's surface area is 196 million square miles. There are 320 million cubic miles of water, or enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of 1.6 miles. There is a LOT of water on the planet, not a little.

Wrong. There's a lot more water under the earth than over it.

looks small, but! - 2/3 of all earth is covered with water - 3.7km is the average depth of the oceans which means that all surface of the earth can be covered with ~ 2.4km of water.
