Over 2,000 people were involved in the vessel's creation, and all of their names are engraved on a glass panel in the main staircase.

Actually pretty classy.

However,

Nobody should have that much fucking money.

You want cables? This baby's got 280 miles of them, powering everything from an on-board hospital (with live-in nurse), air conditioning, satellites, cavernous garages for tenders (small boats, not chicken) and submarines, and of course entertainment systems.

Just a random paragraph

And even given that, this is a shitty use of it

Seriously if I'm building a giant fucking boat with an on-board hospital, the hospital is going to be the boat's main purpose. Imagine having a mobile hospital that can travel to any disaster in or near the ocean to provide immediate assistance.

Instead, it's going to be medical staff sitting around playing on steam decks because there's nothing to do.
