I wish. But what I know of the current affair of things, I can only hypothesize two outcomes:
The benefit after the costs of potential rescue, and now the discovery of 5 recognizable pieces of the craft, will be a learning moment and there will be more regulation of deep sea diving for tourism in the near future. And the families of the victims will say that’s enough and probably name the legislation after one, or a few of the victims.
The family of the victims will make sure OceanGate will never build another deep sea vessel ever again. This one will depend on the legal logistics. Just like how some airlines caused airliner crashes due to pure negligence, some of the first-class families weren’t able to sue them into non-existence due to international airspace and/or waters protections.
Because either of those two things are what typically happens in such a scenario. At least lately.
