The increase in density with depth isn't something trivial you can ignore. I wish I could find it but there was this video that really showed the effect: A pod containing research equipment sprung a pinhole leak a few kilometers down and filled with water over the course of days. Not much pressure managed to escape back out the hole as it was being lifted up. As the hatch was being opened it exploded outward like a fire hydrant for a fraction of a second. It could have taken someone's head off.
