Wow. And at the other end of the spectrum... no need to be a complete degenerate about it. Oh, wait...

Like all rules, you should examine each and everyone to see if there's any real validity. Remember my list?

- (Dual) Sidemount divers plan on donating a clipped off reg all the time. Granted, they've equipped it with a breakaway or other quick release and often have more experience.Having the reg you're supposed to donate in an emergency clipped to a d-ring just seems like a great way to make an emergency a much bigger problem than it already is.
