along the same line of thought isn't the biggest problem with being narked at whatever depth the fact that most dont know it, surley those divers who know when there narked although still experiencing the effects are able to deal with it better.
its along the same line as to why does someone drive really slowly when they are drunk, its cause they know it and dont wanna get caught, where as others think there "fine" to drive and drive faster but they may be no less affected than the other,
ie should you have to calculate some thing on the fly during the dive, if your narked and you know it you will double check everything, whereas if you dont know it you will assume your first result is the correct one, because you have no reason to think otherwise,
would be interesting to know if anyone has "increased" there tolerance of narcosis, ie some one who maybe used to get narked @ x depth but now it dont kick in till y depth.
