Tough question to ask while simultaneously avoiding agency debates, but here's the specific thing I want to know: Some agencies offer this course as a stepping stone towards deco diving. So you do advanced nitrox, deco procedures, and presumably trimix if you don't want to be stoned to the bone on deep air and killing yourself at depth.
But what good is advanced nitrox on its own? Am I missing something, or would you not use greater than EAN40 for anything except deco? I guess I'm wondering whether it has any value as a stand-alone course or if it really is just a piece of a bigger puzzle.
