Sometimes I wonder if a shipping container full of billionaires would have a similar effect.

We have to find out. We need to try it immediately to see what happens. That's just basic science

That seems like a waste of a perfectly good shipping container.

Locally sourcing boulders over the Marianas Trench is going to be such a pain. I'm pretty sure the environmental benefits will outweigh importing some nice basalt from Hawaii before we leave out.
