So... I'm not a GUE expert, but I can at least analyze arguments.
with a drysuit you have comfort and will never get a ticket to davy jones locker because you mixed up dual bc inflator hoses while on a roaring descent
Why are you mixing up inflator hoses? That sounds like a training problem.
You're proposing an equipment solution (dry suit) for a training problem (inflator confusion).
Isn't this the usual DIR argument against gear they do not use.
ETA: Now 'crappy cockpit + pilot crash = blame pilot for failure to follow complex procedure' is not a good plan. But 'inflator left that I always use' vs 'inflator right or stowed to side that I only test' is not very complex. Plus I can hear my inflator with my 10mm hood so I assume you can hear yours. Plus giving up the easy to dive wetsuit for a drysuit seems an increase in complexity.
I never said it’s the only way.
If you think about it, its the only safe way.
So... It's not the only way, but it is the only way...?
To dive safely to deeper depths....AND come back, you want as many good things going for you as possible and that includes diving a balanced lighter rig.
1) Few argued against a balanced rig.
2) "As many good things ... as possible", so you are diving under a Dive support vehicle, right?
I'm not saying a DSV is the only way, but if you think about it... (see quote two)
Who cares about how much lift a drysuit will give you? You don’t have that problem because you’re diving a balanced rig, aren’t you?
1) So, who cares if gear X has enough lift for a role we claim for it??
2) If we are balanced, we need worry about neither drysuit nor dual wing...
But if we aren't balanced, we still don't care if the dry suit has suitable lift??
