Is it a space you occupy? Yes, it is. That makes it a floor that exists that you occupy. It does not need to be elevated to be a floor.

Ever drop your food on the floor? Do you need to be elevated to drop your food on the floor?

Back in the days the ground floor was dirt.

floor was dirt

floor /flôr/ noun

The surface of a room on which one stands.
