Yup, I did my Nitrox, Trimix and gas blending courses with IANTD in the UK
and so am aware of these tables.  My post was primarily aimed at people
using desk top deco planning software to cut their own tables and wanted to
emphasise the advantage of standard gasses for specific depth ranges.

One advantage developing your own set of set of tables is that one has
control over the safety factors used in the algorithm (subject to the deco
planning software supporting this, such as the Abyss).  Also, you can limit
the amount of information and customise the format of presentation to
minimise the effort in reading these tables underwater.

IANTD has several sets of trimix tables available with some tables being an
exact mix and others being  a variable mix. Each of these tables provides
for a repetitive dive. Tables are available for depths from 130 feet(39m) on
mix to 330 feet (100m)
 
These tables have been dived extensively. 
Respectfully yours,
Tom Mount
