- andy99 10mo agoI found that to be really bad writing When it comes to exploring the deep sea, unless you suffer from thalassophobia (the fear of large bodies of water), it can be quite fascinating. What purpose does this serve, other than to introduce a word that has no future relevance in the article. It’s just an empty sentence padding the word count.
