Ken said in another post
"Ironically, there's a very easy way to get ALL the presumed "safety" benefits of nitrox without taking a class, without buying an extra gear, with using nitrox.
All you have to do is dive shallower &/or dive shorter. My air dive to 75 is the same (based on your statement and numbers) as your nitrox dive to 100. Should be the same relative risk, n'est pa?"
Now, Ken, to you as a dive shop owner, this may be very interesting: to reduce your risk of getting bent even more (because there are such incidents as unexpected hits), don't dive at all. How's that for your business?
Ain't it good that there is a better alternative to reduce risk?
