You are absolutely bonkers. This post and the rationale behind it are beyond insane.
We do not understand these ecosystems beyond their extreme fragility and low entropy conditions. This is an incredibly destructive and expensive manner of resource extraction that destroys the seabed. Why would anyone sane ever support this beyond, I don't know, someone who also thinks that clearcutting the amazon is a good idea? What kind of vested interest do you have in this blighted technology?
P.S. - deep sea mining as a whole will help us explore, discover, and understand our Oceans at a much higher level. It already has, hence the 'dark oxygen' type claims never even thought of before.
The deep sea miners have zero interest in exploration, discovery, and understanding of our Oceans at a much higher level.
The moment research they funded to the end goal of mining suggested there might be an eco system under threat Gerard Barron and the The Metals Company reversed course and took a scorched earth approach to their own researchers.

I can’t think of a better way to undermine your credibility than opening in all caps and ending with zero sources.
Might just be satire.
Might just be Gerard Barron in midnight K-hole.
