It absolutely offers protection. Water pressure on pyramidal shape would be inferior than applied on a perpandicular wall.
As I said, from gravity. Which is irrelevant. The world was not suddenly crushed uned a new ocean. Oh wait, you are going to claim that coal and oil appeared suddenly during the flood.
No I'm saying that water somehow moved accross lands coming from the oceans. The water movement was horizontal, not vertical.
That is an even worse idea. You are saying water decided to flow up hill out of the oceans then. God did it is the only way to explain such nonsense.
