Atomic has made this statement many times and, as I recall, from the gitgo when the titanium regs first came out. Unfortunately, since divers assume they know more about gear than the mfgs, we (collectively) don't listen and accidents, like the one in San Diego (which I think was an Aytomic reg) occur. Sadly, there's no way to force people to heed the warnings.
