Or you can make an assessment and crank up the safety factor to take account of this. Or add your own padding. Or dive 'trox on an air computer. After all, if you were diving off tables you would effectively consider yourself back to an A grouping after 12-18 hours or so.....
In Scapa one of out computers got stuck in gauge mode, which needs 24 hours out the water to clear and let you use dive mode again. Suffice to say we didn't miss any dives, and that was just by using cut tables instead.
