That is actually not true. Whale falls exist so it's entire conceivable that bodies fell to the bottom intact and never refloated. In fact we have a couple photos of the wreck that indicate that some bodies did make it all the way down (there's a photo of two shoes side by side where a body landed, and everything else was eaten away but the shoes remained). Your buoyance as a human corpse is largely driven by a combination of the air in your lungs and post-death gas release. But at certain low temperatures and pressures (found in deep ocean), the death and pressure removes the air from your lungs, decomposition slows down significantly so there's no gas release, and thus you sink instead of float. The cold and pressure would actually in a vacuum do a better job of preserving your body than you'd think.
There is however no chance that any skeletal remains exist unless there's a room on the titanic that somehow miraculously was not flooded since the ship sank (no evidence to suggest this is true, but it's technically possible) , because anywhere water can get fish, crustaceans, and microorganisms that consume every single part of a human body can get. Some organisms can eat through bone. Organic material (bodies, wood, etc) was eaten away by ocean life long, long before the wreck was discovered.

All of which were surviving wars they should not have been.....right up until the US stopped helping lol.
The fact that in pretty much all 3 cases the collapse came right after the US pulled out is pretty good sign of what was going on.

You don't appreciate why it's good to have the US as a friend until you need to fight a war. We keep our friends in Gucci in that department.

>Where do people get the idea that naruto is dumb?
From the entire original series?
Naruto is unintelligent in the first series. He's well behind the curve on his classmates, he requires basic concepts to everyone else to be explained to him repeatedly, he has no strategic mind whatsoever (when most of his peers already have some), and it's even mentioned a couple of times he sucks at pretty much everything besides 'here's a bunch of chakra'. It's mentioned several times that his testing scores are atrocious. He's also just socially clueless.
He's markedly more intelligent in Shippuden, or at the very least his ego's gone down so he listens to his intellectual betters. But even then, he's still just kind of average. It's really not until the pain fight when he starts showing real intelligence.

That's a trope for a reason - explanation for the otherwise clueless reader.
There has to be at least one dumb character to explain universe magic mechanics to so the reader can understand them. And it's just most convenient for it to be the main character because well, they're pretty much always around so when you introduce new variants or mechanics, someone has to have it explained.

Honestly, the sensu bean to cell is probably the most defensible punt made in DBZ. Because it was returning the favor to cell after he got his perfect form and decided to not kill everyone (even though it was well, well within his power to do so) but give everyone a chance to power up and fight him 1 on 1. The sensu bean was cell's one.
Also Goku was sure Gohan had that one, bean or no. Which he ultimately did have, the only reason it got close is because Gohan out of no where started to channel his inner goku.
It wasn't a good idea at any level, but it's definitely understandable why Goku, a notoriously lenient fighter with a lot of pride and honor, to do it for him. It definitely wasn't as egregious a punt as a) letting cell get his perfect form, b) gohan not killing cell when he had the chance the first time, c) krillin not destroying 18, d) 18 not running when vegeta was busy decimating imperfect cell.
Goku's many, many punts in the buu arc however.....

Shout out to when Goku could have killed Majin Buu but refused to do so so someone else could tag in and finish Buu off.
and then failed to do so and Goku had to tag back in.
.....twice.

the practical answer is 'it would look like it's underwater'. Between the sheer force of the impact of hitting the sea floor, the weight of everything above it, and a century of pressure, water, and sea life, nothing of the time could survive that.
If you hypothetically had a room that was airtight when the ship sank and could survive that long, what it would look like would depend on what organisms were alive in there before the ship sunk, so mild decomp most likely.
