A fatal shipwreck is generally considered the final resting place of the individual(s) lost in it. A car wreck is not. A wartime wreck (ie war grave) is considered even more sacred. I believe that's the thinking behind the argument.
Personally I think that diving these sites with the appropriate degree of respect and consideration can be a tribute to those lost on it the same as if one were visiting a topside memorial or a wartime cemetery. I have done so and will do again.
