I recall when i last played a year ago, i was able to buy the nacreous survivor back from the Fathomking, after winning the game at port cecil.
From the wiki:
This time around, though, that option is not available. I checked my journal and it seems i'm missing that Learning About quality.
Did i screw something up? or is this no longer possible?

As noted, you needed to have dined with him. That means before he died. I hope you have a save game Merciful mode or it's no other option here or hope this didn't autosave after his death.
If you did and it stripped this from you, contact Failbetter as only they can say if this branching is deliberate (edit: if you win the Port Cecil chess game) from now on or a bug on that specific game.

by the way it's really expensive, you shouldn't revive him, you'll find another cook

you guys were right, it was the dining.
Which really ticks me off, it doesn't make sense. Presumably they used the knowing about him quality in order to prevent you reviving him before you meet him, and thus having two of them.
it would have bneen more logical to use the Witnessed the End of the Principles quality.
In any case i feel cheated, so i cheated right back. I fixed it via save file editing: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=588725254
I made the outcast reappear, dined with him, made him disappear, and then paid the cost to revive him.

In the future, talk to all your officers by Dining. Some of them can't even progress on certain quests without it.
But yeah, the Bandaged other Cook is much better for the price he asks for his quest. Unless doing some completionist thing, don't spend all that to revive your Rubbery "man." Unless you like spending Scintillac for rubbery romance and winning the chess game . (And now we're getting into Scinitllac fetish territory. Snow Belie is retired from all that.)
Maybe if you have to kill a certain Mechanic for him counting out wrong sometimes, but (almost) never worth it.
