As a fellow Instructor, I would make this plea. Take the experience as a motive to make sure that you teach your students on how to be comfortable in using tables. If a recreational diver is dependent on computers, then that is what he will rely on.
Are you sure about that? Recreational Tables are conservative.

we use tables based on algorithms, we use computers based on the same algorithms, . . . .
