So, on this logic, we need different valves for Argon cylinders - after all,
wouldn't want the
oc-air-diver to breath it.
Different valves for Oxygen, high fO2 Nitroxes, 
low fO2 Nitroxes (after all, the regs don't need to be O2-clean), Trimix ...
Its a slippery slope, lined with our dollars.

What's wrong with DIN?
