How making Noah's Ark more plausible doesn't grow your faith

I heard that a group or two is building a full size ark similar to Noah's.

Based on the dimensions from scripture.

It's massive- 500 feet long complete with cages.

It is said to give an idea of how big the original was.

So that you can see: that yes it's possible.  Yes it was big enough and could really hold all those animals and their food.

The builder said that he hoped by doing this he would make the story of Noah's Ark more plausible.

No thanks.

I don't want to have to know that the things my faith tells me are certain.

I don't think a plausible faith is something I'm ready to believe in just yet.
