What you refer to must have been in vogue long before what Bill, George, and I were using from 96 on.
That was NEVER part of anything I saw or heard of.
All I am saying, is since I did many hundreds of 250 to 300 foot dives, using George tables, with zero dcs, and requiring much less gas than current WKPP tables, I would not consider throwing out what works for me, for what might NOT work as well for my physiology. Bill Mee feels the same way.
i say do what works for you and wouldn't suggest changing it. and for short bottom times I think almost anything will work
but for large exposures guys aren't doing anything special these days beyond shifting some stop times around on intermediate stops. thinking has changed with regards to decompression since the 90s and it helps to have one of the leading researchers actively diving on the team
