This is all fine and dandy ideology, by there are some REALLY BLATANT
PROBLEMS with a lot of the gear rigging going on:

1) Stage bottle marking
2) Steel tanks/wetsuit
3) over redundancy/complication

These gear rigging issues seem to have a rather large correlation (ie at
least 75%) to recent deaths.

Personal preference that.
