Not sure what you mean in your above statment perhaps you have that bass akwards as well. 50/50 is the standard followed by a switch to 100% at 20' from a deep dive per WKKP as well as deep stops (at least in the ocean). Maybe you have it confused with 80/20 which is indeed a stroke mix. If you run a model on your computer using your deco software you can watch the decompression ceiling raise as deep stops are added into the schedule. And as you add 50/50 into the plan. Give it a try you will be as surprised as I was the first time this was demonstrated. What this gives you is invaluable.
