Teach the crabs how to read and the next thing you know lobsters will be doing the tango. It's a slippery slope my friends.

Lobsters don’t die due to old age. Instead, they end up at the seafood buffet or die from exhaustion during moulting – the process where they replace their shell due to their increasing size.

If they read the above then they may figure out to stop moulting and live forever. And imagine the knowledge they could accumulate!
