We don't need more regulations on extreme deep sea submersibles. There are on average approximately 0 deaths per year, and fewer than 1000 users per year. This number is extremely unlikely to go up.
On average, Classic Cars kill AT LEAST an order of magnitude more people than extreme deep sea submersibles per year. People want to drive their old cars because they look cool. People want to do all kinds of dumb stuff.
When proposing regulations, ask at least these three questions: Is it a big problem? Will it become a big problem? Is it truly voluntary?
You can still argue about these questions and their answers, but at least it's not a binary or knee jerk response.
