If I were claiming that RD was "optimal" in terms of the physiological decompression process, I could understand objections or calls for substantiation.
If I were saying that using a PDC left you more at risk of DCS, I could understand objections.
But what I'm saying is, it can't be said to be dangerous, I find it highly practical and it is explicitly presented to me in a manner that encourages personal adaptation as one develops.
Which I personally choose to do - adapt it, that is.
These wild objections to that, I find to be clearly motivated by sentiment.
Let me say this:
I hold the Bonus Pater Familias-principle to be entirely pivotal.
But if I were the sort that would stuff my dog in the microwave to dry after bathing it, probably I'd be more prone to litigate, say, microwave manufacturers and the like.
