Lol. I'm not sure if you're making an ironic joke, but they actually had to prove this when the previous administration was trying to bury them in bureaucracy. So they had to carry out a scientific study to demonstrate that (1) the ocean is quite large and (2) the odds of anything being at any specific point are quite low.
I'm sure you can dig it up somewhere if you too need a study to confirm such.
Is it weird that a private for-profit company wanting to explode something in public space needs to prove it does what it can to minimize the potential damages? Should everyone be allowed to throw bombs into the ocean? Or just Elon?

They didn't bomb the ocean. It was empty and just above the water line which means minimal shock in the water, minimal dispersion in the air.
