O.K.

So can I get somebody to explain to me how you mix up one tank in a set of
banded, manifolded doubles?

The dive shops plan exactly. If you happen to have an extra sticker to
'slap' on. But I have a hunch that if you didn't, they just might happen to
have a sticker for you to buy ($20) to stick on your tank.

Requiring labels on each cylinder in a set of banded, manifolded doubles
makes no sense since you can't create independent cylinders from them
without draining the tanks.
