This is in the coulda shoulda woulda realm.
Stockton Rush could/should have built a test cell for a full scale hull.
He wouldn't have needed to test a complete craft; just the CF cylinder with the Ti caps/rings and view port. A steel cylinder welded together with a hemisphere cover bolted on with enough fasteners to take the load.
Test one until it fails and the other cycle to the Titanic's depth for enough times to fully characterize the hull.
