To the OP, I don't know the point now, perhaps it did have one way back...
I'm still only OWD, learned a lot from the people I dive with, learned a lot here, practised things on my own, read a lot offline, learning new stuff daily.
I will take care of the AOWD C Card during next spring just so that nobody can make it a problem. I will basically just pay for the card, not because I want it though.
I'm on the other hand going to do the GUE-F course in February, for a big lump of money (and my nerves coordinating 3 different people and the instructor, the venue and infrastructure), but I reckon it's worth it. Hopefully it will be.
Education is perpetual thing, I just happen to be picky for what I'm spending my money. AOWD as done by all major agencies and instructors for me has literally 0 return on investment.
YMMV.
