With the discovery of Adv. Ecological Engineering, aquatic factions can terraform ocean and ocean trench squares without raising the ocean floor. The AI ignores this and will either raise the floor of the ocean and then terraform the square or, in the absence of the ability to terraform up, will not terraform the square.
I’ve tested this extensively in the scenario editor. The Human player can take advantage of the ability but the AI seems to be unaware of the option.
This is possibly related to aquatic factions bases being placed in ‘illegal’ places if flexible starting location is turned off or if time warp is turned on.
