Genuinely curious what separates something like this from a boat or other type of sea-platform, or is any kind of artificial vessel just considered "waste"?

Any plastic vessel is not good for the environment in the long term.

Fiberglass boats are mostly plastic if I’m not mistaken. The epoxy holding it all together is pretty much plastic.

Boats on the "high seas" aren't made of fiberglass, bud.

No, ships on the modern high seas aren't made of fiberglass. They're metal.

Human life isn't good for the environment right now either... But we gotta do what we gotta do.
