While one may have more gas in him, it's because he took it in faster, ergo he can get rid of it faster.
This is giving me something to think about, thanks.
I don't know.
Where and how is all this adipose tissue distributed in the body?

Yes they start with the same concentration but different quantity.
The culprit is that should they take the same time to reach new equilibrium at P change then they have different half-times (they start off with different quantities). I demonstrated that above.
Would you know if an a body, due to whatever reason - say they way it is distributed, more adipose tissue would need more time to decompress, i.e. effects would not be due to to simple scaling up the quantity?

Why you brush it off like this? You make a great contribution first. Or I misunderstood your last statement.since we don't have a verified (if any) model
if the half-life is 30 minutes, then it will lose half of the "quantity" in 30 minutes
Yep!
If they have the same half-time, then they will achieve saturation at the same time and they will return to equilibrium with the surface at the same time. That is by definition of the term "half time".
Nope.
This is what is happening in the model because in the model the compartments have no size.
I don't know if this is happening in real life because the divers start with different absolute amounts of the same tissue and different absolute amounts of N2 and different distribution of the tissues.
In common they will have the same same concentration of N2 to start off with.
Yep. This is actually where the model is very strong.fat tissue is not necessarily a specific "compartment"
