I’d argue that HAL is responsible for design and maintenance of weather seals that can hold against storms.
Interesting to me that HAL made good for a weather-related phenomenon, but failed to respond when the stench of their own sewage system permeated my room.
And they could do a great job of it, if people, didn't expect balconies and sliding doors and so on.... we got very little water ingress on the
warships I served in...because their design could keep out virtually anything the sea threw at us (and you do know just how powerful the sea can be, right?) Of course no one would pay for the very "indoorsy" experience of life at sea on a warship... (445 ft long vessel...229 onboard... THREE portholes. One in the wardroom. One in the Captains Day Room. One in the Missile Control Room - overlooking the Launcher
)
As soon as you start having so many "weak points" ..as all Cruise ships do.... you ARE going to have problems in bad weather.
