I feel that 1.17 is the perfect opportunity to add prismarine ores to the game. Currently, the only efficient way to get this building block is by creating huge farms in ocean monuments, which is not appealing at all for casual and new players who enjoy exploring and building rather than exploiting game mechanics, and is, to make a comparison, as if the only way to get iron was through iron farms. Adding prismarine ores in the new aquifers or in any caves generated under ocean biomes would be the perfect solution for this problem, as it would allow casual players to get prismarine without having to invest dozens of hours into building gigantic farms. It wouldn't be anything new, as we already have quartz and copper ores which are mainly aimed to be crafted into building blocks, it would finally explain how were ocean monuments built, and it would fit perfectly with mojang's policy of creating content for all play styles. Another alternative could be to add prismarine patches at the bottom of the oceans, similarly to blackstone in the nether, although that other idea would be a more interesting mechanic for the game IMHO.
