The use of 36% or 32% is not efficient as a decompression gas. Even under "ideal" situations, breathing 32% or 36% would be less efficient than staying on backgas that would probably have a lower PN2.
Here is the bottom line -- introducing nitrogen is contrary to what you are trying to accomplish in decompression. If you start your ascent deep enough and ascend slowly enough, the helium is not an issue. That being conducted, nitrogen is the bugger that makes the DCS bubbles that you now want to avoid.
Here is the problem with using 32% or 36% (aside from the other big problem of introducing N2) -- watch what happens to the PPO2 from your first deco stop to your next gas switch. For example, from 110' to 30' or 20'. You have a huge gap there (80-90') where the O2 ceases to be useful and the N2 takes control. You are basically pissing in the wind half of the time. However, if you use 50/50, the differential is only 50 feet from 70 to 20 feet and you don't lose as much benefit in the ascent. Furthermore, the PPN2 is less than with a 32% or 36% so you are doing what you can to supress N2 introduction. Even better would be to switch to 50/50 heliox and remove the N2 altogether, but I won't get into that today.
The use of 50/50 starts at a shallower depth and allows the use of smaller cylinders. This allows better streamlining for swimming/scootering at depth. Also, less weight gearing up topside and less cumbersome.
Now, using 80% is plain counter-productive to decompression. These are your final stops where you really want to clean your system out before removing all pressure and surfacing. 100% O2 is much, much, much more efficient at cleaning your system out. Ask yourself this -- if you are trying to remove N2, why introduce any more???
Please try and produce one rational reason to use 80%. Anyone.
Don't even try the story about rough seas. If it is too rough to compromise decompression at 20' -- there is no reason you should even be in the water and you should be more worried about how the hell you are getting back on the boat.
You are resting during deco. Should a swell pass by and you "drop" to 25' for a second, that is not a real big deal. I have been is some seriously crappy seas, and deco has never been compromised. This is real diving, not theoretical or cyber diving. Forget what you have been taught and just think it out. Logic and common sense will show you the right answer.
