Last year my son-in-law asked the DM why he didn't use a computer. He said he couldn't use one...with as much diving as he did it would lock out on him.
That's faulty logic!!!!!!!!! If a computer is going to lock him out, then what are the tables telling him?
He apparently doesn't know how to profile dives correctly if that's REALLY his reason and IMO, completely irresponsible behavior on the part of the DM and a horrible example to be setting!
My crew gets at least one day off, two if possible and if they're doing more than 2 dives a day or if they dive more than five days in a row...they get nitrox...period!
