They're making The Little Mermaid lore messy.

I think you're very confused.
Ariel's father is King Triton, and he's only the ruler of the Kingdom of Atlantica.
We don't know yet the background of Poseidon, but going by Greek Mythology Poseidon was the king of ALL seven seas and the Tritons and Nereids were at his command. So King Triton could very well be an underling to Poseidon himself.
Or better yet, he could be Ursula's brother, and son of Poseidon (Making Ariel his granddaughter), considering in the Disney movies, Ursula's arch Nemesis isn't Ariel, it's Triton, they've feud for decades, Ursula was in fact a member of King Triton's court until he banished her for good, which is the only reason she turned bad.
