DIR guys have a really good history of using rebreathers. the MCEP guys in Mexico, OCDA crew at Roubidoux (and others), EKPP, Asian Karst Exploration Project in the Philippines, and of course the WKPP all currently use RB80 rebreathers for their long range diving, and the JJCCR has been in use for a few years now. Clearly they can be used safely and within the DIR framework.
I can't comment about the CCR program, but the RB80 mirrors the OC procedures nearly perfectly, from MODs to deco to gas switches, and I think that there is a lot of strength in that.
