I think the debate is on the air integration component, not on dive computers as a whole.
Very well. The air-integrated part just provides the diver with an estimate of "Dive Time Remaining." It's up to the diver to use this data (if they so choose) to plan the rest of their dive. Sometimes it can be useful. Other times the dive will be controlled by other data. A good diver will know when to use a particular set of data in order to maximize their bottom time and minimize their risk.
