On the other hand, if we look at all the historical precedent for piracy becoming a major disruption to trade, it seems to me that most cases were solved only by a generous application of excessive violence, not by negotiations, as global maritime trade routes simply are a so huge strategic factor that's far more important to major powers involved than any struggle that some people may have, so if someone escalates their struggle to disrupting global trade routes, that is treated as a huge unjustified escalation and they and their struggle automatically becomes the enemy of almost everyone else, something to be eliminated at any cost, not treated as a valid concern.
