We had to tear them out to hand in in 2005 too. I handed in xeroxed copies so I could keep the originals in the book. She allowed that. Same with AOW (Adventures in Diving) book.Pretty sure our PADI manuals in 1990 were not free. Possibly included with class, but that’s not the same as free. IIRC doing the quiz things in the book and tearing them out to turn in was a thing around then, ensuring everybody had to buy a book somehow.
