Ah yes just write code for the ship fold itself neatly back into reusable materials.

Just build a grinder the size of a football stadium to shred battleships into pea-sized chunks, and sort according to metal type, how hard can it be?

It might be more cost effective to build a concrete bunker the size of a football stadium, use placed explosives to blow up the ship inside of the bunker, and then shred the exploded ship up into pea-sized chunks

Teach me how to code that and which compiler will spit out the football stadium grinder

Teach me to how to code a compiler to spit out fully realistic and accurate videos via text prompts.

Just drop the ship off the conveyor onto a bar. The good ships will bounce higher, and the bad ones won't. Problem solved.

Sarcasm aside, this is how they sort cranberries and where the expression "raising the bar" comes from. The higher the bar is set, the tighter the constraints on which cranberries will bounce onto the "good" conveyor.

I actually had to look this up, why are you spreading misinformation?

The idiom “raise the bar” came into use around 1900 and comes from the sport of track and field. The high jump event and the pole vault event both involve raising a crossbar incrementally to see how high the participants can jump or pole vault.

Because I grew up in cranberry country and that's what I had always been told. I'm not surprised to find this out though, because that makes a lot of sense.
