There is a lot we all can learn from this. The Coast Guard wants to know what happened so they’ll bring in their own people to help investigate. I wouldn’t trust any investigation the company is footing the bill for.
Regulations are written in blood. Unfortunately, there are not a lot of regulations with privatized deep diving submarines like the Titan. It’s just not a large industry. As we learn what failed with the sub, both construction and administrative by the crew both in the sub and supporting it from the surface, recommendations for regulations can be developed.
Commercial Diving has a lot of regulations they have to follow, but interestingly enough, parasailing doesn’t.
These sub expeditions could be the next big industry as materials and technology become more cheaper. I’m not saying it’ll get cheap though. Just more people could access.
