@Bastian hund. I am with you on what you are saying . I would encourage ANY diver, at least once in his life, to go into at least one minute DECO so that he would understand how his computor works in such a situation. This is much better to "let it happen " as opposed to have to manage it because it happened by accident.
I am, on the other hand surprised to hear from Zeb that there is NO psychological barrier once you enter into DECO and at the same time he dived for 21 years without crossing the NDL; What an accomplishment. Why - because of the mental barrier........talk to my wife about it
I have been diving in a lot of places around the world and I can tell that in some places - especially atoll deep passes - in the Maldives or French Polynesia , you will have a tough - albeit very short - time to avoid the DECO mode. Just my experience.
When it commes to TEK diving, most people would consider that deco diving is not the definition. I would locate it at the level where different gases are used during the same dive, in order to make the deco more efficient/faster .
