Yes. See above, and the previous 1000 threads that cover this. While you might not agree with all of these points as benefits, they certainly have been made in this forum! . . . .
It feels like I've read all 1000 threads. Having tried out a borrowed BP/W as I mentioned above and not had the most pleasing initial experience, and as I am about to finally pull the trigger on my first BP/W purchase after much research and discussion both here and offline, I have an uneasy feeling that switching to a standard BP/W will have the same sort of impact on my warm-water recreational diving experience as my neighbor switching to a fixie bike has had on his tooling around town. Just not entirely sure what it's going to do for me, other than satisfy the requirements for the Fundies class I've signed up for. In any event, I'm charging ahead. We will see. Until such time as I become a true convert, provocative threads like this are still going to attract my interest.
