I assume there will be disappointment there isn't a full ban but it's worth going back to what the science says with regards to protection:

"We reviewed 144 studies to assess whether the UN target is adequate to achieve, maximize, or optimize six environmental and/or socioeconomic objectives. Results consistently indicate that protecting several tens‐of‐percent of the sea is required to meet goals (average 37%, median 35%, modal group 21–30%)..."
