I don't understand this fixation that the tank must be negative to reduce the lead weight. I prefer a weight belt to integrated weights. I prefer aluminum tanks to high pressure steel because they are more buoyant. If I need to doff my BC and tank in the water, I don't want to be struggling because of a big buoyancy differential. And there is the cliche about the diver who forgot to inflate the BC before tossing the rig into the water, and it sank.
