And I have no problem with that! Indeed, I specifically note that I think everyone needs to dive within their training and accepted risk level, and that the most important thing to do is to be able to have some awareness of what you know and what you don't know.
As long as you're ok accepting the risks you take, and you're in a situation where you are as fully aware of those risk as possible, then it seems to me that people have the right to do what they want.
I do most of my ice diving in a lake that has a maximum depth of 30', we simply don't play out 100' of rope to start with. 50' of rope is lot for us. So the conditions sound quite different.
Where I in a situation where I was going to be 100' from the hole, my configuration would change. I personally believe that the distance to one's exit point is the cu. ft. of air needed for a safe dive. So I wouldn't be out 100' with a single 80 either.
But frankly, I'm also not comfortable enough under the ice to be 100' from the hole at this point in my dive life. That's beyond one of my limits.
