Skill in the water is really the only thing that matters IMHO. Some inflate dive numbers up to them there are no scuba police checking log books. As long as people are honest about their self assessment and competence to do the next dive they are planning who really cares about the numbers?
Fun to mark milestones perhaps but as long as entry and exit numbers match, you are having fun and respectful of the environment I really don't think it matters in the scheme of things. I personally get more of a kick out of tallying bottom hours. These numbers really only mean that we have been lucky to participate in an amazing sport X number of times for Y number of hours!
Last time I checked Scuba was not considered a competitive sport:doh:
