Totally disagree. For some divers who own their own tanks/cylinders the ability to understand what they see inside is important to them. I am one of those people.They are trying to change their role from customer to peer.
Let's be real, the math is iffy. I drove 1800 miles total for that particular course. Yes, I'll see savings someday, so what? I wanted to take the course from someone who is proud to teach it the right way, hands-on and full of cleverly placed pitfalls. Pun intended. You live on-site and have all the time in the world to ask endless questions, instructor has all the patience in the world to answer them.
Customer to peer? I have no desire to rise above the solo diver that I am up to the level of a dive professional.
