An expert doesn’t like my idea. He fails to take into account the “it would be really cool factor”:
The main reason, because it might not explode. And because the size of the bomb that might be needed would be as destructive as an actual
eruption.
There’s a good chance that this activity might just be like the domebuilding activity of the 1980-1986 time period, which would no nothing more than fill in that crater to the same cone before the 1980s activity started.
