Recap:
0-50 meters is Nitrox
70-120 meters is Trimix on OC or CCR
CCR makes sense if you dive alot.
120 and beyond is CCR

50-70 meters is the weird range for OC because of the cost of Helium. If Helium was cheap and easily available, this depth would be Trimix. Since Helium is not cheap or easy to get, some OC divers go for it with Air and accept the added risks. Others, find this risk unacceptable and choose not to dive recreationaly without Helium beyond 50 meters.

Is this a correct summary of the argument?

It's not on topic and you should be able to Google as easily as did I. The unlikelihood that the Dalai Lama said such a thing made it easy to find support that indeed, he did not. But here you go, and let this be an end to it:

So, let your fingers do the walking eh? And as I didnt need to go looking for any 'reinforcement' as it were, why waste my time with Google.
But what did you not understand about #5 on the list you proffered? :facepalm:English not your first language?

And speaking of 'off topic'. You were the one to make the 'challenge' so to speak, I just used what the DL said as an illustration.

@Boarderguy was right after all, and here I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. Silly me. You turned out just like some other people, who make a comment then try to weasel out of but put their foot in their mouth backing it. Oh well, que sera, sera.

Nothing of substance will ever be derived from conversation with her. Only snide holier than thou and halcyon pinnacle comments.

You do realize the text in yellow is an example of a wrong quote / chain mail?

I do realise that thats what that page claims it to be, yes.

But I am not making any 'claims / comments' on the rest of that lists accuracy, as have never seen that list before, it is solely the wording in #5 that I am 'acknowledging'.

Stop being a dick. It's a trivial matter nor related to the subject of the thread. You were wrong. She was right. Move on and shutup.

I like the summary but my personal boundary for nitrox to trimix is 30m. Given I do all these depths in CC and have only a limited (😀) number of tanks, I am doing any dive within 60m with the same set of normoxic mix + 50/0. If I dive in the 21-30m range I am using the overkill normoxic mix for the sake of simplicity.
