Who the hell knows why the thing failed? But the odds are pretty high that it wasn't because of a guy at the sticks at the time.

https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/titan-c...nder-1.6451582 The concerns surrounded the company's decision to rely on sound monitoring for cracking and popping noises made by the hull under pressure to detect flaws rather than a scan. OceanGate told CTVNews.ca in an email on the subject of the design and build of the Titan: "We are unable to provide any additional information at this time." Marquet says the design of the Titan and the materials used to construct it, concerns him. "It has this big window and that's a vulnerability," he said. "There are no windows on military submarines, for a reason. So the window itself, where the window meets against the vessel is a vulnerability." According to the lawsuit, the submersible was designed to reach depths of 4,000 metres, but Lochridge said the passenger viewpoint (window) was only certified for depths of up to 1,300 metres, and in the suit he alleges, OceanGate would not pay the manufacturer to build a viewpoint cleared for 4,000 metres. |

Again, since he was piloting these expeditions himself, it's a rather moot point.
