This is wrong in some many ways. To add to the already mentioned. Ocean water is the largest carbon dioxide buffer by absorbing CO2 to become carbonic acid. As the sulfur acidifies the Ocean, this "competes" with the carbonic acid, increasing the CO2 emissions from the Ocean.

In other words, all geoengineering tropes end up being horseshit.

I swear every time I see an argument like that one, if they zoomed out and considered a system in total instead of one process they would see that it's bullshit

Either they are naive or arguing in bad faith....
