I've been looking at this set up for a while. I like the idea of primary donate (longer hose) with an octopus on a necklace. In an emergency, the person that needs air wants the one in the other diver's mouth. It makes sense to give that one away, reduce panic, and grab the octopus. In the event of a clingy panicked diver, the octo is close enough to get into the mouth with limited arm movement/mobility.
Where I'm getting hung up (sorry) is the GUE model I keep seeing that does wrap the hose around the neck. That seems to invalidate the whole thing, as a panicked diver won't wait the half-second or so necessary to unwind it. it seems far more likely that the diver will grab for it, and there's an even chance of the non-panicked diver not getting their head out of the way in time. That seems like a bad day.
