It's not fear, it's a risk analysis. I think that particularly location is too risky, others are free to disagree. I've spent time on the water in storms and heavy tides, and I don't care how big a ship you are in, if you lose power or steering, things go from fine to "oh ####!" in seconds, and they've got a lot of islands to navigate around.
I'm not sure what mitigation you are thinking could be done. But I don't think we should just say "####in' send it buddy!" every time a new resource project is dreamed up.
