There is no such thing as "FAKE" deco. You set your computer to the parameters it is meant to be set by; accounting for DCS pre-disposing factors etc.
Why play trickery with the instrument that is safeguarding you? K.I.S.S.
At the end of the day, your physiology versus the dive profile dictates DCS. No button pressing on a computer changes anything about that. No chicanery will get you longer in the water... if you are diving prudently (and that includes setting your computer realistically based on the physiology, conditions and activity).
Why fuddle you computer to force a slower ascent? Set your computer properly and add whatever sensible stops you feel are beneficial to increase your conservatism and insulate against DCS risk. I do a 9min ascent from 9m, with 3 stops, for my recreational dives. I don't need to engage in tomfoolery with my computer to do that. I'd be a moron if I needed to... because it'd mean I couldn't trust myself to simply remember a simple amount of ascent profile...
