Debate What crushed the OceanGate submersible?

[Beholder]

Was it water pressure alone, a whale, sabotage from a competitor, free diving hippies not wanting deep sea drilling, Steven Seagal going rogue, defective parts from Aliexpress, or first contact with intelligent life in the deep sea?

All it would take to do in any submersible at that depth would be a tiny leak
and it seems that these submersibles already had their flaws.



A lawsuit, a letter from industry leaders, and comments from the company’s own CEO, one of the missing crewmen, all pointed to potential issues with the Titan submersible.

In 2018, the company fired David Lochridge, OceanGate’s director of marine operations. They claimed he breached his contract and shared confidential information about its designs with two individuals as well as with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.


However, Mr Lochridge alleged in a wrongful termination suit obtained by The New Republic that he was fired for blowing the whistle about concerning safety issues.

According to the suit, Mr Lochridge delivered highly critical updates regarding the ship’s quality control to senior management and OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, pointing to alleged issues such as “visible flaws” in the ship’s carbon fibre hull, “prevalent flaws” in a scale model, flammable materials onboard, a viewing window not rated for the Titanic’s depth, and key safety documents that were not shared with him.

I haven't read further in this thread, yet, so forgive me if this was mentioned. I heard that the "driver" simply went deeper than he should have, knowing full well that he shouldn't. They apparently discussed this issue while creating the sub. It's still a very sad situation.
