There are natives on those islands who will kill you for merely stepping on their beaches. They actually may be the home of the last truly primitive peoples anywhere in the world, and India has laws protecting their right to kill people who venture onto their territory. Something tells me that we won't be seeing any sympathetic shots of environmentalists rescuing oily seabirds this time around.
Yes. I am aware of that. The Indian Coast Guard allows no-one near the islands. They operate radar installations on those islands.

The oil will break down naturally and will not have a large environmental impact.
The biggest advantage of it being so far from land is that the environmentalists won't try and clean up the spill and do much more damage to the environment in the process like they have in the past.
