So... let me get this straight.

1) You notice that a lot of people die while diving rebreathers.
2) You wonder what is different about these divers, when compared to OC 
divers.

(let me give you a hint, the difference is that they were using 
rebreathers).

3) You then say that you are switching to a rebreather.

Now maybe you have a really good reason to use a rebreather.  Maybe your 
life's ambition depends on the use of this technology.  Maybe even the 
high risk is worth it to you just so you can achieve this life long goal.

If this is the case, I can understand.

If not, well, I don't think there is anything I can say that wouldn't be 
construed as being rude.
