A Shallow water equations evaluation

[maistral]

Summary:: A little confusion on the momentum equation (I think).

According to Wikipedia (I know, I just need basic resources for now), the conservative SWEs are
:

If I use product rules, I am supposed to get:

For context, note that ρ is a constant and can be taken out (thus canceled out), and η(x,y) = H + h(x,y) (H is a constant).

I have no issues getting the first line. The second line however, I am facing issues. This is what I have:

I intentionally did not distribute the derivatives with respect to y so I could see the problem more clearer. Am I missing something here with regards to the expansion of the PDE? Thanks in advance.

Just an update:

I found this paper that actually is the same 'issue' that I am facing, though they just presented it.

This paper:
https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0039545

It stated that:

I am having trouble understanding how the second equations have been made (second equation 4, to second equation 5).

The wikipedia entry on shallow water equations doesn't make sense to me. How could you, from equations derived using momentum and mass conservation, merely expand terms and get a non-conservative set of equations. No mechanical manipulation of equations changes the underlying assumptions they were derived from.
