Something caused the failure, and at this point it doesn't really matter what it was. It only matters that it did fail, and that "the system" failed to keep it from happening.
The damage is being done, and we do not understand the full extent of the damage. We are probably making it much worse by putting in the dispersants.
Much of the Gulf of Mexico is going to a dead zone. A smaller portion already was, for years, and as a result, much of the land along the coast will also be dead. The ocean is incredibly important to all of us, and we are soiling it.
