If youre doing multiple dive days, lots of ops (and divers) want to make sure you have your deepest dive first and try to make the plan for their 2/3/4 dive day so thats what happens. However, if you dive all day at deep sites that means you need to make sure you actually get there.
Now the VALIDITY of the first dive to be the deepest is a different matter entirely, but its how its generally been in the past.
Now, overstaying there is of course fully possible considering the fact that if you zip down to 110 and stay there for the duration of your BT you're going to be at 4,3ata for 25 minutes and with a half decent sac of .5cfm that ammounts to just short of 54 cfm out of your 77ish cfm tank, but that would just be REALLY bad planning and/or paying attention if you intended to do a 1-hr dive...
If you planned to do a 25 minute square profile it would be just about bang on though - if you and your buddy can surface safely from 110ft with 23cf of air that is...
