It’s very telling that their protocol was messages every 15 minutes, but they were so used to losing contact with the Titan that nobody bothered to report the sub missing for several hours. The voice recordings could prove problematic for them.

"several hours" being the entire expected length of the expedition.
Because previous dives, the sub had lost communication for long periods of time.

This whole thing was a "how not to submarine".
Like, you know how OSHA/HSE/whatever laws are written in blood? Yeh, prime example.
