Fill a glass with ice ….add water to the lip...wait for ice to melt...DO NOT wipe up the dry counter because water level is below the lip of the glass.
Ice has more volume than water. You are 100% accurate, the water level goes down, not up. This isn't even freakin rocket science. Ice floats on top of water because it is less dense.
Many people don't realize the amount of ice in the North is massive, but the amount under water is far greater and displaces a massive amount of volume.

Nobody ever considers displacement.
