I agree this statement is false but not knowing how to use your computer may not even be as serious as ending up with DCS. I was recently in Raja Ampat and a diver in my group had multiple computers she didn’t know how to use. During a dive when we were maybe 30 minutes in at 30ft deep she was convinced her computer was telling her her NDL was 2 minutes. She was upset and showing the dive guide. Luckily he knew the computer was wrong and waved her away. If he had been less experienced or she had been more stubborn maybe that could have ended my dive. Of course after the dive I asked her if she read the manual and understood her computer settings and unsurprisingly she said no.False, but an attitude that is all too common. Ever been on a dive boat where someone got DCS?
