On the subject of team bailout. I have seen it used both with OC and CCR.
When I was doing a lot of ERD and Mix gas diving on the South Coast. The group I dived with always put a trapeze in. We all carried sufficient gas for independent diving. The general rule, was plan for either a travel or a decompression gas failure, and be able to make a safe ascent to the surface. Losing both travel and decompression gas was a KYAGB (Kiss Your Ass Good Bye).
That said, the trapeze ALWAYS had a spare travel and decompression gas clipped in.
Because we dived on a trapeze, we ALL had to ascend the shot, run times where such that we would all be on the trapeze at a similar time. Even though we carried our own gas, we could swap out cylinders with others in the group. If we could get a diver to the trapeze, there would be gas. In addition, divers finishing their decompression could leave additional gas with the diver in trouble if required.
Whilst this isn't strictly team diving, the availability of gas was very similar.
When I did my final Mixed Gas CCR qualifying dive, it was a team dive, 6 of us. A full bailout at the end of the bottom phase of the dive would require 1.5 travel gas cylinders, and two decompression gas cylinders. So, from the plan we had the capability to safely exit two divers on 100% bailout. In addition, an exiting CCR diver could always return with additional gas (or his rebreather) at the end of their decompression phase. To have done the dive with out team bailout would have required each of us to carry two Ali80's of travel, and two Ali80's of decompression gas.
Much of my recent dive has been more recreational, i.e. no deeper than 40-50m, decompression under 30 minutes. I can carry my own gas for this. Often I am diving with OC buddies, so I am carrying additional gas for them if we get into real trouble. I very seldom dive with buddies who are not at least on a twinset.
Team bailout, much like Mix diving, requires discipline and planing, and practiced skills. You must expect things to go wrong. That is the difference!
