PerroneFord:That is exactly my point. Conservatism reaches a point of diminishing returns.
For your info: The D9 and D6 (maybe other models as well) allow you to set the model less conservative. This in addition to setting the computer more conservative which has already been mentioned.
Maybe the wish for people to be more conservative is directly related to the experience they have and/or how comfortable they feel under water.
Personally I believe I need to get a lot more dives done before I want to go near the edge of the NDL's. I do feel comfortable under water but know I still lack the experience.

If I'm diving and I'm not back in five minutes...............wait a bit longer.
