Sideband:The logic is faulty. Out of all of the options available, several of which include safe, controlled ascents or even never even running out in the first place, the two of you are HAPPY with being bent on the surface?
How about monitoring your air supply and never running out of air?
How about properly planing the dive so you never run out of air?
How about staying close enough to your buddy that if the first two fail you have a reliable supply of air?
How about aborting any dive where you find it impossible to stay close enough to your buddy to stay safe?
How about carying a sufficient redundant air supply so that if you fail at the first three you can make a safe controlled ascent?
Instead you choose the option that you know in advance will likely end with you bent on the surface? i just don't get it.
Too bad. You were making a good point until you lost credibility with "will likely end with you bent". It is an increase of a very small risk for recreational divers. It is simply not likely.
Why is it necessary to exagerate the truth to make a valid point?
