obviously we aren't going to reach agreement on this, but since I think rescue situations are stressful, then realistic rescue situations should (IMHO) be stressful as well.
However I think rescue training should stop well short on one point, and that is putting the student in danger.
Of course I would agree that "Prepare divers to manage realistic rescue situations" is somewhat open to interpretation by the instructor and their experience.
