The static net buoyancy of your tanks isn't an issue to be solved by a BC. Things like that are addressed as a weighting issue.scubacowboy:That is surely true in a single tank straight forward recreational dive. However I would venture a guess and say that most people using a lift cap. that high are diving big doubles and carrying quite a bit of gear. Myself I find 60 pounds to be just right diving my doubles where a full set of tanks are right around 20 pounds negative before manifold, regs, ect.
If you are dealing with twenty pounds of gas shift, that means over two hundred sixty cubic feet, which is fairly common. It is also quite a distance from sixty pounds.
Yes, I do think you are among the misguided.
