This guy is diving solo. He already said so in a different thread (Monterey Breakwater). Noone is encouraging him to do so, but if he has made that conscious choice, why not give him the other options he is asking for, so he can practice the skills and be better prepared? or should we all sit back and say "You're going to die, See you on the accidents forum"?Exactly how is this better and safer for a brand new OW diver than simply ending the dive and surfacing with his buddy?

Moderating your air isn't difficult and preserves your air, way better than a panicked assent to the surface and risk of embolism, IMO.
