The window had worked fine for dozens of past dives - just because something isn't "certified" doesn't mean it won't work reliably. The carbon fiber hull was a much bigger concern.

  Something working in dozens of dives does not imply it keeping to work in the next one.

    Unlike the window, the carbon fiber hull had to be replaced due to stress fatigue. It was a known issue on the sub.
