I figured the quote would still apply since the OP is also asking for 2 divers. I imagine they are sharing a room.
I’m not sure what the diver to DM/guide ratio is for Asia Divers but we will find out. I have been spoiled by 2 to 1 and 4 to 1 ratios in Indonesia with a few being 6 to 1. I don’t mind larger groups since I’m used to liveaboards with 15-25 at a time. Granted, we hit the water in waves rather than all at once.
I’m a big liveaboard diver and my thing with resorts when I am diving 4-5 dives a day is that I’m usually lazy and tired. Getting up early to go to a shop because it’s not on site is an extra step and “thing” - I hate mornings yet go figure: I love early morning activities like skiing and diving. Finding food between dives, wanting to go back to my room between dives or to rest, and time in general etc is an issue for me. I like easy. Which is probably why I love liveaboards.
I will report back!
I definitely agree with your thoughts on a liveaboard. sure is easy to go 15 steps to the dining table, 15 steps to your room, 15 steps to the dive deck and a few steps into the skiff or step off the back of the boat
