The point is that it is a big job. The ship seems to be in an area devoid of container cranes which will not help but 20,000 containers at one a minute 24 hours a day is over 13 days continuous work.
If it takes 5 minutes each or they stop working when it becomes dark you can start multiplying that up. Five minutes each is a couple of months altogether.
There are up to 20,000 containers on that ship. Unloading that amount would be a major task and take some time.
Good thing cargo is designed to be unloaded/loaded. What’s the point of your comment?

I’ve worked at a port it takes 2-3 days to unload about 20k containers docked, out on the water with a crane might take a extra day two at most
