it most certainly IS carbonated though.

Yes, but the concentration of CO₂ is about 420 ppm from 2023 measurements. Whereas your average carbonated soda is around 10,000 to 15,000 ppm. And most people call anything below 2,000 ppm flat.

Something to consider.

We’ll get there don’t worry! The world’s biggest corporations are carbonating the ocean as fast as they can!

At the very least, we're doing our damnedest to fill the ocean with carbonic acid

Was gonna say this. Man we are so fucking the oceans. I personally feel we are past the tipping point but it's gonna be damn scary when the oceans hit their limit and there's a mass dropoff in life due to the water being inhospitable.
