If you're assuming all the risk an want to bypass certification that's fine UNTIL you start taking paying customers (tourists) to depths where if anything goes wrong there are zero chances of survival.


I'm thinking it might be more irony. The owner died in his own contraption that he chose to cut corners on an avoid outside certification. He also said he avoided older, experienced personnel for "young innovative" thinkers. His statement came across as a slam on old white guys an a nod to diversity hiring. One person with experience in the field says he may have used the diversity as an excuse to not have anyone that knows more than him on the project objecting to his time saving measures.
There is absolutely a benefit to have "young innovative thinkers", but sometimes things are done the way they are for a very good reason - and those "young innovative thinkers" may not know what those reasons are. Experience matters no matter what business you are in. Too many people (and especially managers) don't understand and/or acknowledge that. Someone posted hubris a ways back and that is probably the best explanation of this - "I know better than everyone else" - if there is any justice, it is that the man who did all this died for his convictions and hubris.
