FWIW I just gave a similar question to Claude Sonnet 4 (I asked about something other than pianos, just in case they're doing some sort of constant fine-tuning on user interactions[1] and to make it less likely that the exact same question is somewhere in its training data[2]) and it gave a very reasonable-looking answer. I haven't tried to double-check any of its specific numbers, some of which don't match my immediate prejudices, but it did the right sort of thing and considered more ways for things to end up on the ocean floor than I instantly thought of. No hints needed or given.

[1] I would bet pretty heavily that they aren't, at least not on the sort of timescale that would be relevant here, but better safe than sorry.

[2] I picked something a bit more obscure than pianos.
