It's like people that decide to row across the Atlantic in a bath tub

And then - amazingly - get into trouble a few hours in when the sea does what the sea does. And need to be rescued at exorbitant cost, and no doubt some risk to others.

Fuck em. If you want to row across the Atlantic in the bath tub, you're on your own. It's Darwinian. Same thing applies with going to peer at the wreck of Titanic from inside a tiny tinpot submersible.
