Real life is not like video games. Blowing something up doesn’t make it disappear; it could actually spread debris chunks everywhere and (in addition to the collateral damage factor) make the problem worse

People just don't get the scale of things like this, do they? Ever Given is taller than the canal is deep when empty. Blow it to bits and you'll get some bits that are at least as deep as the canal.

I am genuinely interested in learning how you think that could possibly be workable. The reason I ask is that I am not particularly knowledgeable about either explosives or the canal but I can instantly envision a number of reasons why such a course of action would be completely unworkable.

I think it's always interesting to get another perspective and I am somewhat disappointed that people have downvoted you without even wanting to hear your reasons. Such conversations are always an opportunity to either learn or to teach for those that are open to it.

I think part of it may be that it's a new account, using a gibberish name. That's not a good prior for "will be an interesting discussion to engage in" when the comment is also missing some fairly obvious step in the thought process.
