Your point on "pot and kettle" is valid. All I ask people to remember is that scientists digging for government grants have the same kind of axes to grind and the same potential pressures to arrive at certain conclusions as scientists digging for private funds.
During this discussion I have been using NOAA sources, EPA sources, university sources, and many others.
Your criticism of Berman seems valid, although I haven't looked up sources yet. It seems to me that oil broken down to sufficiently small droplets (as dispersants do) can take a very long time to get to the surface given circulations that override the buoyancy. After all, the different gases in our atmosphere don't separate out much either. However, the "underwater plumes" still aren't showing up much.
