Dive babble all day long
I'm all about the layering & options.
My beginning layer is a full dive skin which protects me from the sun & random stinging beasties floating in the ocean. I always wear that. For warm tropical climes, I have a 3mm & a vest which I can layer over the skin. I also bring my 5mm because I tend to get cold & usually towards the end of a trip with a helluva lot of diving I need a 5.
Completely agree with @Jason: I have almost never heard someone say they wished they were cooler when diving. I have often heard, "I've wished I was warmer."
