well sure, that was kids. We only remember that kids were trapped, barely if at all the adults involved.
If that cave was just full of random divers, we'd probably not heard of that one either.

It was a lot of people (more than 30), and IMO wasn't covered as heavily as say, the Thai cave or this may be.
There is definitely a disaster angle news latch onto, but it's pretty rare for a group of adults this small. There are small plane crashes with more fatalities multiple times a year...
And it can't be the 'missing people' angle, there are like 400k kids every year reported missing with less than milk carton coverage...
