Standardization, scalability, beginning with the end in mind (as expressed in DIR) to start. But this is a tangent better pursued in a different thread as it doesn't pertain to the topic at hand.
Again, I don't have a beef with the regime at all. I like it for what it is. I'm just aware that there are different perspectives out there and that they also have validity. Like many have expressed in the thread so far: If it's your thing great, enjoy; just remember that others have their thing too and may feel as strongly about their choices as you do. If I present an alternative POV it is not out of disrespect but rather to expand upon and challenge beliefs in the Greek sense of the term.. argument.
Sure it pertains. All of that stuff is great for a rec diver. Standardization is what makes the whole 'team diving' thing work so smoothly, and the scalability means you don't have to relearn stuff should you decide to go on to more advanced forms of diving. How is that a bad thing, again?
