I think the Air II would fall short of DIR (and all around good diving philosophy) because of the complication it adds to the equipment, when it can be handled with a standard inflator by good diver technique. It adds another regulator that can free flow and is more likely to malfunction than a simple inflator. It is also substantially bigger.
