Well, not exactly _anchor_ lines, but nevertheless illconceived and
possiblly ignorant opinion on both counts:

1) Cave Divers (and other Penetration Divers) can have cave line break
- easily, and this can equally easily be worse than a missing anchor line
2) There _are_ (often unpredictable) currents, both in freshwater and
seawater caves
3) These currents can sometimes even change direction - suddenly
4) There is surge in seawater caves (can be enough to blow your eardrums)

So, what have I missed guys?
