These wouldn't by chance be any of the same 'engineers' that 'over designed' windows

It was not designed to resist, and it didn't, yet it did what it was supposed to do. What's the story?

I'm not a seafaring engineer or anything, but I'd have thought a design with a floatation area emptied by a bilge pump was always going to be in trouble, especially if there's no one around to fix the pump.
Surely they'd have been better off filling that area with foam so it wouldn't flood at all?

For the really paranoid, sinking the buoy may have been a way to attract attention the project otherwise lacked

Yeah. Ten minutes ago I had never heard of it. Now I'll always think of it as the big yellow piece of shit that sank in the sea. :)

...it's become self-aware (or received new orders from the Lizard Alliance) and has sunk into the depths in order to train aquatic life and form a new army. For is it not written:
"...and they shall rise up, and they shall crawl out of the slimy depths, and they shall nip our ankles with their claws ... for if thou dost hear the clicking, thou shall know the end has come..."
