Does the RAW preview mention any of the islands or oceans in close proximity? Things like France or Britain's island possessions or local undersea communities.

I don't have it, so I can't say, but you might want to look at Underseas and Lemuria; they might have some useful information.

Those I've looked at. Doesn't have the info I'm asking about, through it covered some info that I was interested in.

But why reskin AK instead of releasing AK, I'm assuming your talking the old webbook that was done? I HIGHLY doubt my 2009 POH talk with KS that I was making one, even though he said he'd be interested in seeing the manuscript had ANYTHING to do with it.

probably because the author decided to reskin their existing and unsubmitted alaska works and submit it as antarctica, without any PB involvement in that decision. this is one of the downsides of freelancers. you only get what they decide to write, the publisher has little say in the content until it is submitted.

It is definitely no where near this description at all

Ehhhh there's things there that definitely make you think that it was at least in part, that.

It's been a while but I seem to remember a number of North American sort of things popping up.

There's more to it (Like the 100% un-needed addition of the Minion war drek) And the Anarctic jungles and bugs and stuff, but on the read through I remember going "Many of these things are better suited to Canada and North America".
