Everyone get's narc'd...at some point, Yes.
But not everyone notices it.
When I begin to notice the subtle beginning effects of nitrogen narcosis, I don't immediately abort the dive, or get shallower.
I haven't been narc'd to a point where I thought to myself: This is unsafe... I'm not safely in control of my mind or my actions at this depth.
You should be able to tell when your reasoning and judgement becomes impaired to an unsafe degree.. by simple "narc tests" you learn while out diving or training.
When YOU (or your buddy), reach a level of impairment that you cannot safely continue your dive... you should seriously reconsider your depth or maybe a different breathing gas.
Some can drive a car safely only having one or two beers. After one or two beers, some don't even know how to unlock the car door.
Some can dive safely to 130ft, after feeling narcosis since 100ft. Although, your buddy might begin to feel narcosis at 100ft and be completely unable to safely continue to 130ft.
