Pretty sure that we will learn that the identification and then deployment of resources for access to the ocean floor (unmanned/ROV) started pretty quickly after concerns about the Titan became serious.
Once on-site and deployed it apparently did not take long for the discovery of evidence of the implosion.
Of course we already know that other search and rescue efforts were underway pretty quickly.
I imagine that resources to reach that depth are scarce and expensive to deploy, and of course we know it is hard to get to that part of the ocean.
I watched one interview where the person suggested that it might be/is a good practice to have an ROV standing by at the surface, but in an implosion scenario, I wonder how that could help humans in a submersible.
