It gives a real world opportunity for training and experience in deep sea salvage and rescue. The experience may save lives some day.

The money would have been spent anyway. The equipment was already built, the boats and the labor already paid for. May as well use it.

The question is the opportunity cost. I doubt any checks were written from a general fund. What would the coast guardians have been doing instead?

I hope no lives were lost to the absence of coast guard resources during this salvage operation. For practical purposes, I guess the coast guard was happy for the free marketing about the cool stuff they do.

These are five key questions that still need to be answered.
Did the passengers know the dive was going wrong?
Which part of the Titan sub failed?
Did ocean sounds distract from the search?
Why were safety concerns ignored by Oceangate?
Why did the authorities allow Titan to dive?
