100% agree with this, a lot of the rules exist to cover the common case. The common case isn't your situation, so they may empathize with you. Industry experience is also important as @CydeWeys pointed out.

Regarding magnitude of these types of events, NOAA does amazing work collecting data on tsunami events with impressive energy simulations. As some point I had seen several videos from the Chile event in 2010 that showed the shockwaves trave
