    This will mean less treasure hunters finding old wrecks because there’s no financial incentive

      Or less incentive to talk about their discoveries publicly. I suspect future hunters will just loot the wreck, destroying much of the archeological value and then offload the artifacts on unregulated markets, further degrading any historic benefit.
