Titanic 2: AAAAAH!

An Australian mining tycoon has decided to rebuild the titanic, possibly even a fleet of them.
He says that he hope that tradition can survive and that he can replicate the Edwardian age, its manners and its attitudes, the code of chivalry and old English school attitude. Didn't these upper class people aboard the Titanic care more about themselves, their money and showing off than anything else? And as for code of chivalry, did the Edwardian men really treat women better and respect them more than they do on average today?
The tycoon Palmer, sees the Titanic 2 as a symbol of love and togetherness and yet he is keen to replicate the class structure of the original Titanic right down to the steerage class. What??? Isn't this an oxymoron?? Somebody locate an ice berg!
