True. But del Toro is talking about "for generations to come". The high seas are subject to shifting tides.

Which is presumably why some people hoard as much stuff as they possibly can.

As a service to humanity.

Del Toro should finance a kind of library, the purpose of which would be to preserve physical copies of films and shows.

That would be cool. Something I appreciate about Scorsese is how much he has done for preserving old films.
