What is so difficult to comprehend about working with multiples of 1 bar/min breathing gas Surface Consumption Rate in Metric versus 14.5 psi/min in US Imperial Units??? You've got no excuse, justification or rationale if you don't even try & understand. . .
You assume that I need some excuse, rationale or justification to keep using the system that is most intuitive to me. It doesn't matter that metric is easier for some people, it is not what is easier or more intuitive for me. I think Chevy ' are easier to drive, why don't you have one? It is obvious that cotton is the superior clothing fabric, don't you agree? This whole argument is diametrically opposed to my first principle of diving. I do and use what I deem appropriate and safe. You do the same. If we both come up alive who was wrong?
We have very similar discussions in the whitewater rafting community about the "proper" gear and techniques. It is as silly there as it is here.
