We’re already sequestering a quarter of the CO2 in the ocean; this will do so in a safer way that mimics the large scale natural process that’d happen over the next few millennia anyways.

well scaling a natural process will change the chemistry of the ocean. Since the ocean is such a huge component of our planetary system it would be foolish of us to approach it without monitoring and planning for the consequences of this scale of engineering.

i've found https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/pdf/10.1146/annurev.energy... to be a pretty good overview.
