Wouldn't we love to bring one of these to an aeroplanie as an emotional support animal?

This is more about hydrostatics than aerodynamics. But I digress...

Are these things safe from the inherent dangers of wings, then?

No. Something with wings can still crash on them.

We understand that...

It is indeed more about hydrostatics, but not_completely about hydrostatics.

You are attempting to dismiss the higher-level question:(see footnote) Why does flapping a fin back and forth provide forward propulsion?

Any Kutta Boundary Layer Humping Arriving at the same time barn door factors involved (or donkeys)?
