I dont really agree with counting the oceans but not counting the gaseous areas of the gas giants, but i guess it getd messy with how to portray it. Portray it as a liquid form of the gases so you have definite volume? Remove the liquids from the equation (but that would create MORE land on earth)? I dont know. It just seems like removing them from the equation creats an extremely small picture, but maybe that's the point.
There is land beneath the ocean. Is there land beneath the gas?
No, but there might be a theorized metallic liquid hydrogen
So, not solid surfaces, as called out in the image
