Converting methane at the bottom of the ocean to CO2 in our air is a bad idea. The only way it's a good idea is if you assume the methane would end up in the air anyway, which is only true if warming is unstoppable (in which case the hydrates are doomed to melt by themselves). So, if you argue burning hydrates is a good idea, you've implicitly accepted that warming is real and unstoppable. Which is something most "drill, baby, drill" folks tend to deny.
