I really like the demonstrative picture of the ten-year-old putting it on.
Couple of dives with this and he'll be ready for PADI cave training!  Wonder
how bad a hit the SCUBA market will take as soon as a ten-year-old panics at
50' and embolizes on the way up and 60 minutes comes to town?  Wonder how
long until the government gets involved after that?  Are these manufacturers
and agencies really this fucking stupid?

I agree, I think if you take this thing on a little beach in Hawaii 
and use it to extend your snorkeling so you can look at the turtles, 
it's fine.  But for that you don't need to spend $600...
