Kinda difficult to compare container transport in a tunnel which should have maintenance tunnels to a one shot incident in a place which wasn't built to specific design. The other issue was the forces causing the blocking pushed the ends about 100ft further into the mud. Had to dig it out or have a 10ft tide to refloat. SISI cost cut the project, and they shouldn't allow ships that are wider than the channel they dug.
