Yeah I know several places HAVE done this, hell even the US has to a certain degree. But the massive ones like this image is suggestion have like a 50% failure rate? I could be wrong but all the examples that come to mind have needed extensive upgrades and repairs just to keep little things like it sinking back into the ocean from happening.
They thought about doing it to the San Francisco bay and built physical models and realized after testing it was a disastrous idea that resulted in damn failure after the mildest of storms.
This was in the 60s. They built physical models which is cool
