If this is not a understood principle then you'd better call NASA and let them know all the really have is an 'unproven theory.' (according to you)

Subtitled, "The solar wind has slowly eroded the Martian atmosphere for billions of years -- transforming the planet into a barren desert."
Are you suggesting that the flood occurred over the course of billions of years?
("Not at all. It could be carried.....")
why did it take billions of years according to the source material/website (got to go beyond that particular artical)
Short answer: because that is how long it took for the martian magnetosphere to collapse.
At the time of the flood, our planet was beyond the critical mass it was designed per the core density/activity (per the first paper I posted) the additional mass put on by the water exceeded this planet's ability to retain the additional mass, and was lost.
Our magnetosphere is a constant, post flood our surface area was not. Our planetary volume (water) exceeded what this planet could protect with it's fixed magnetosphere. this volume boiled off quickly. (not temp boiled/low pressure boiled) google it.
Why? because of what my first post/paper says.
