Yeah. I tried to use my desk calendar to date the earth the other day. Didn't give me even a decade. (Do you get my point here, or is it too subtle?).
I will leave it to others to pick over this carcass of old, discredited creationist arguments. Suffice it to say that these are problems invented by and for creationists, and they have been dispensed with by scientists perviously. No one takes these arguments seriously any more, including some of our creationists.

Imo, nobody's proven this to be true.
In this case, your opinion is wrong. It has been mathematically proven. Now, if you have different parameters you want to evaluate, you should make them known here.

There's other theories to show that pre flood canopy would've created the perfect weather world wide.
But those are just theories, right? I'll bet they have not been proven. So why do you accept them?
You might ask yourself just what it would take to 'prove' something that would convince you that the flood never happened. I'll bet further that there is nothing that would convince you.
