The larger the DSMB, the more difficult to deploy it when shallow — lots of gas required, significant lift to compensate to maintain buoyancy. It requires practice or sending it earlier from deeper. If you dive with swell, large is the only useful size.
Exactly and that's why so many people deploy their DSMB and it ends up looking like some pizza dough sitting on the surface being horizontally stretched.
