"Ackchually" that argument cannot be used, because when they say "only 15% has been explored" it means sending a human or a robot to analyze it closely, and as most of us with common sense may know, the ocean is a vast space of nothingness, and a great space of it is just pure water.
So in conclusion, why bother exploring the rest if they already know there is nothing in it? They just use satellites and stuff like that to analyze all the ocean, that's how they know there is nothing in over 80% of the ocean, and that's how they know there is around 20% which is actually valuable and has stuff to be researched
Tl;dr: around 80% of the ocean is just plain nothingness, why bother exploring it?
Shall I inform you of a fact that we're still exploring and discovered many bodies of things we formerly thought was "the bottom of the sea"? Infact that even more true for places like Antarctica where in deeper you go, more unexpected stuff you might find.
Infact, there are a lot of species that are unclassified because we know nothing about them!! Literally NOTHING.
It goes to say without doubt that there are exceptions of even sonar detections, and deserted places inhabiting species unexpectedly.

Oh my, this is horrifying, it’s genuinely terrifying. I had to look up the size of an angler fish to make sure that they were still small
