"Most computer's continue to *on-gas* while you are ascending and completing a deep stop."

Even Pyle said that when he does his deep stop that there is a longer hang time and his deco software adds hang time but he feels better and more refreshed doing them. His belief is that the deep stop(stopping at 1/2 the max atm) for one minute off gasses the largest bubbles that are circulating in the blood. Allowing this release hinders the further growth for even larger bubbles. The newer mathematical models on computers do a continous decompression and give credit for these stops. So, is it your word against the dive computer companies? How can we get over this obstacle?
