** However if we are using older scripts, Madison wouldn't become a human, she would simply be forced to "live like them", meaning she would look a human but would still be a mermaid. Originally Madison's transformations were going to be quite painful (think an American Werewolf in London) but this was changed so she would be more appealing and sympathetic to the audience. Meaning that if she didn't get her "daily soak" she would transform painfully against her will, possibly killing her (similar to the mermaids in POTC).

** It's also explicitly stated in an older draft that merpeople can't go to the "human society" so it's most likely Madison could use her legs as much as she wanted as long as she stayed away from humans. It would explain how she is as agile with her legs and the hot sand doesn't hurt her feet because she's used to it on smaller isolated islands.

** Humans need resources such as scuba equipment, submarines etc to explore the ocean - and limited time to do it. Madison and other merfolk can stay underwater all the time, and likely outrun any investigations. They're also able to hide on land and pass as humans.

** To further this, the original script and its novelization featured a mer-council who are aware of Madison's infaution with a human. They are the ones who tell her that either she must remain on land with Allen forever, or Allen must come to their world. The original ending was supposed to show Allen turning into a merman as they enter the city of the merpeople.

** Also, it's likely that the scientist are aware that if there is one mermaid, there must be others. They were probably going to plan an intense search of the sea to find them. Understanding Madison's biology would help them understand where else to look. The home of the merpeople is seen briefly at the end of the film and it doesn't seem to be too far away as it is. They likely would have found it.

** In the original script, Allen is supposed to explicitly turn into a merman once he swims off with Madison. It would have been established earlier in the plot that Madison either had to get him to come with her and join the kingdom of other merpeople of which she was apart of, or she would be either banished.
