I think modern education is lacking. Classes are done too fast for most divers to learn the skills they need, and students are passed with the mentality of "they know enough not to die, and can learn on their own time," yet students somehow have the idea that their card means they are actually good, safe divers.
I'm also seeing a lot of cave divers at the lower levels who have no regard for the limitations of their certification. The trouble then is, they will point to full cave divers and say "they are staging without a stage card" and "they are scootering without a scooter card" and "there is no cave police" so they go ahead and dive thirds of doubles at intro, and take jumps at intro, and feel justified and safe doing so.
Honestly, most divers scare me.
