While I understand the concept of your "everyones land," I think it
inappropriate to apply the term "land" to what is not land, but rather sea. The
largest true Everyone's LAND would be part (or all) of Antarctica (depending on
who you choose to believe)--and about a quarter of Antarctica is doubtfully
land, really just a solid sea, the ice-earth interface being well below sea
level. (Somehow, an iceberg sitting on the sea bottom never quite qualified as
land in my view.)
So, what is wrong with the age-old and widely accepted term "high seas"?
