I'm not defending OceanGate, I'm just saying it is relevant to the discussion because we're talking about an inherently risky leisure activity for wealthy elites, they should have done better research on the company. You hire a shitty guide to take you to the bottom of the ocean because you're bored and the guide gets you killed, that's two mistakes, not one.

> that's two mistakes That's certainly fair. OceanGate and its investors should be wiped out, to the extent liability allows, and I would be supportive of a prosecutor who pierces the veil if capital was extracted. The proceeds should go to the only set of victims who didn't have a say in risk -- perhaps the 19 year old, but BY FAR most importantly the taxpayers of the nation states who paid for this ridiculous SAR exercise.
