“Water expands when frozen, making this theory complete bullshiite.”

The crystalline structure of ice takes up more space than liquid water. Liquid water starts to expand when it warms past 40F.

I was curious and dug deeper to learn about the temperature range in which water does expand.(aside from the freeze expansion)

I’ll stand corrected. Expansions were minimal, as I recall, but I’m sure that we’re all still gonna’ drown.
