it look like it was completely at sea, but it would kind of make sense
to leave them at sea if you could put a router there.

First thing that comes to mind is power, how would you power them?

Undersea cables have had power for repeaters since TAT-1 in 1956.  I
think we can consider that to be a solved problem.
