 bottle markings / gas switching

WKPP:
-indentify
-take reg. around the neck/put reg in mouth
-identify
-open valve
-....if you can breathe, you are breathing the right gas

I've been taught to
-pressurize the reg. of my stage before descent at 40"
-check the gauge
-close the valve
continue the descent

What if: one took 1 breath of 100% O2 at lets say 70", notice that you
have the wrong one (because the valve is closed) and switch to the
wright one. Can 1 breath do any harm?

Is it nescessary to pressurize all regs before descent?
