There are few people that would describe AL80s as "perfect" for warm water. More accurately, they're cheap, and that's why they're used so much. Adding weight to counteract a buoyant tank does nothing to improve diving.
Having a tank that is only -2# full and +4# empty implies that the diver needs to carry very little weight as long as they are diving in a T shirt. As a result of the lack of a wetsuit, buoyancy control is trivial and essentially unvarying except for air consumption. More important, the BC doesn't need a lot of air so it doesn't change lift as much with changes in depth.
Adding unneeded negative ballast just means that more adjustments have to be made in the BC as a function of changing depth.
The degenerate case of this type of diving wouldn't even require a BC. Just a couple of pounds of weight to overcome the tank buoyancy at the end of the dive and that's it. Contrast this with a -10.5# tank (start of dive) where the diver couldn't possibly be neutral at depth without wearing a BC.
The value of ditchable weight in warm water is debatable. Accidental dropping of quick release weights is fairly common, more so than warm water divers not being able to stay afloat. Guess what happens when you accidentally lose your weights with a buoyant tank and wetsuit? If you're trying to determine which is safer you have to balance those issues.
Losing weights is a potential disaster for cold water divers wearing wetsuits. If they can get off the bottom, they will have a heck of a time controlling the ascent.
Warm water (T shirt) divers only have a few pounds of weight and losing it is much less of a problem. Still, there is no reason on earth to lose a weight system (other than integrated weights held with Velcro) regardless of the type of diving. Get rid of plastic buckles, or better, ditch the belt in favor of a harness and all these problems (or potential problems) go away.
Even integrated weights (as long as they are held with something other than Velcro) make sense for warm water diving. The diver can float without the BC and the BC can clearly float without the diver.
Integrated (web belt attached) weights do not make sense for cold water diving. A 30# lift wing will not support a -10.5# tank, -20# lead, -6# backplate and -2# regulator (-38.5#). Yet a 40# wing isn't really necessary. The diver can wear the 20# of lead and still have plenty of buoyancy with a 7mm wetsuit and the 30# wing can easily support the tank, backplate and regulator (-18.5#). Added backplate weights are also a possibility for moving 8# (give or take) from the harness to the backplate. Now, however, the BP/W with tank weighs 60#. That's a lot to lift off the tailgate.
Warm or cold, getting the diver and rig balanced is the goal.
Double bladder wings are controversial at best; redundant buoyancy is almost certainly better served with a lift bag (if using a wetsuit) or even a decent sized SMB. In case you don't know why this is, it's because A) the extra inflator hose adds task loading and failure points; sticking inflators are pretty common. How would like to be heading for the surface in an overhead or deco situation (common use for doubles) while trying to figure out which inflator hose is sticking? B) since the two bladders are in the same shell, whatever might puncture one could very well puncture both, while a lift bag or SMB is safely stowed.
I don't dive doubles so none of these issues are of any concern to me. I'm only slightly worried about a stuck inflator valve. In any event, I have a little plastic hat attachment to make disconnecting the hose a lot faster with gloves. I would be more concerned about an elbow failure.
Total redundancy for lift is the best solution. But for a single tank diver, there is no need for this approach if the setup is properly balanced.
What do you tell your buddy? "Hey, I'm so negative at depth with a full tank that I know you can't rescue me with your BC alone. I don't have any ditchable weight so, if my BC fails, I sure hope you know how to use a lift bag." What if they don't know how to use a lift bag?
I don't think you can make a good case for no ditchable weight. By extension, I don't think you can make a case for a highly negative tank removing the requirement for ditchable weight.
