I'm not an expert on ocean shipping by any means, but I would assume that cargo value is such a low priority when it comes to determine loading strategies that you would only need to optimize around a local area of maybe 100 containers. Which would not make it a hard problem at all but it could be pretty pointless depending on how many containers go overboard in a typical "lost container" event. Also, consider that from the point of view of the people loading the ship, it's all insured. And if you didn't get the insurance then you understand the risk. Why would they care? They aren't the insurance company. What's their incentive?
