By that argument we don't even need to create any land at all. There is plenty of empty or nearly empty land all over the world. It may not be as desirable as specific places, but i can assure you the cost to make large swathes of land inhabitable by humans is comparatively low.

Your arguments are fixated on extreme corner cases. I'm not sure what you are arguing for.
