Hammers do two things pretty well.
I know several tech divers in the northeast that use the same bungeed 95# lift wing, whether it's with a single tank adapter and single steel 120 or a set of steel hp100s. No trapped air issues with any of them, very streamlined etc.
These divers are highly trained, experienced and accomplished, like most of the divers in this thread. What is unsafe and sub-optimal to some here is perfectly safe and optimal to the divers I know. Who's right??
I certainly agree that it merits discussion, but there is never ONLY ONE right way to do something. Therefore, I agree to disagree.
The anecdotal reports from a few divers that "their" choice "works" is not evidence of it's superiority.
Hmm and now to some up what I've learned on this thread:
Tobin is a Borg leader
PerroneFord and others are Borg drones.
Then they should buy a nice singles wing and go diving.
Tobin
TS&M will be hurt that you've lumped her in with the rest of the drones.
So the challenge for you is to find Picard. Who has actually been assimilated, experienced the philosophies, and turned around and said "this is a crap way to dive" rather than just look in from the outside and make third-party pronouncements?
I agree that there may well be more than one correct or succesful way to do something. But there is often a lot of wrong ways. Those can generally be sorted out quite quickly with some clear thinking and some testing. However, it does require approaching things with an open mind.

They believe resistance is futile.
Anyone that hasn't been assimalated doesn't count because they aren't Tech.
Because I don't conform to Borg tech I'm actually already dead so it really doesn't matter.
I'm sure glad the Federation rep from Dive Rite made an appearance in this solar system.
OMS is part of the Federation but you need to be telepathic to get customer support. I'm sure my OMS tech gear doesn't work because OMS customer support (that I've never needed) isn't up to snuff.
Finally as we all know a few manufacturers do offer wing models rated for both singles and doubles use. If there was a significant safety issue in using one of these dual purpose wings don't you think some smart lawyer would have made it into a legal case that would at least caused the model to be discontinued, the rating changed or cause the manufacturer to go bankrupt.
