It is so many years since I did any maths but what you have said seems plain wrong (but it could be me!)The area under a curve (your sine wave) is its integral. the integral of a sine wave is another sine wave but phase shifted.
I don't think the frequency gets into the equation. Yes more iron is needed at lower frequencies, but what is that to do with areas?
On a more practical level, having used I don't know how many items of electronics from around the world here in the UK at 50Hz (and I did personally import a lot of stuff after living in CA for 3 years) I have NEVER had a problem.Anyone who specced a transformer so tightly that it is OK at 60 but not at 50 deserves to be shot!
Maybe some really nasty wall-wart stuff, but nothing vaguely serious should give any problem.
