Eh so long as they don’t ground out then they’re fine, even if they make a ground connection then the breaker will trip long before enough juice hits that pool to seriously hurt them
Where in the hell are you at that 200 amperage wall outlets are the norm?? In 99% of US homes outlets are 110v 15a which is enough to put you on your ass but certainly won’t kill you without prolong exposure or preexisting health factors
A human body wouldn’t conduct that much current with mains voltage. It’s just too high resistance.
Also pretty sure they mean breakers with GFCI as is required in some countries. If they just mean regular circuit breakers then yeah they are fucked.
Although tbf since it has both neutral and live in the strip it would probably short and not even reach the people. As in almost no current would go through them because ground is right next to it. This would in turn cause the breaker to trip without even a GFCI getting involved potentially.
Only if they’re using a gfci breaker. Standard breakers trip at 7A+ which is plenty enough to kill you. In the US, this breaker is on the wall outlet, in the EU, this breaker is on the central panel.
Bare in mind the nearest ground is also in the power strip. It probably wouldn’t go anywhere near the people. Since you also now have a short circuit it would probably trip the breaker depending on the conductivity of the water.

Almost as if places outside of the US exist. Like the EU where the voltage is 230 volts in homes.

I sure hope you guys arent pushing that with 200 amps, too
