All valid points. OK, now look at it from the DIR perspective.

We want people thinking, we dont want instinctive. the ethod behind our drills is to diagnose the problem.
we shut down valves on EVERY dive, so it doesnt generate stress. that's why we practice them so much.
we don't do narked, that's why we have standard gases.

this is good example of looking at one aspect of DIR and questioning it, without looking at the whole picture. DIR only makes sense when you look at all of it, as soon as you pick it to pieces it stops working.
