Any dive with an instructor is inherently not a solo dive so how can anyone teach a class in solo diving? It seems like a self-contradiction. Just because PADI or someone else gives you a piece of plastic remember that it doesn't necessarily mean you can safely do what it says you can just like taking a class will not make you a safe solo diver. Have I dived alone before? Sure. Do I think it’s ever safer than diving with a competent buddy? No. Would I *pay* someone to teach me a "safer" way to dive solo? Never.
