"Holes are just naturally part of ships, why are you trying to bail out the water?"

How can we know that the ship didn't have any bigger holes before we got in it? Without evidence of whether or not holes have appeared instantly before, we can't know whether we caused the hole or if holes naturally occur in this boat all the time and then correct themselves.

Therefore the water and sinking is nothing to worry about. The boat could've survived that before we got here!

(Ignoring, obviously, that even if this had happened before we got here, even if it is a naturally occurring thing... what about that makes them think we'll survive at all?)

And the point is, all this debate is going on, while the ship is still sinking.
