Got it. You really don't know what your own strongly stated advice means.?
I never told anyone what to do and why would I? They can dive how they want. Deco theory doesn’t have to be complicated technical stuff, my understanding is that it can be what time you have at x depth, breathing x gas and if you go past that, how much deco you have.
I mean what follows as sincere advice of my own.
When I first started in technical diving, I learned to follow a number of practices without really understanding why. I would be pretty strongly chastised for not doing something a certain way. Eventually I got some training from a couple other agencies, and I continued with the practices I had learned earlier. In most cases, that was not a problem, but in some cases, the people training me would ask me why I did it a certain way, and I honestly didn't know. I had been told I MUST do it that way because I had been told I must. In one of those cases, I only recently learned why I had been told to do it as I had, and I thought the rationale was absurd.
So my advice is to keep an open mind and don't simply repeat phrases you hear and especially don't make strong advice statements unless you truly understand and can explain why what you are saying is true.
