You don't think they should have looked for it regardless...?

If they heard an implosion at the time the sub lost contact? No. There would be a search and recovery operation, not search and rescue.

I'd liken it to a space shuttle blowing up, the incident isn't compatible with life.

Hearing the implosion is very different from seeing it. I don’t think it’s as certain.
They probably heard something and now know it was an implosion.
