Haven't put cost of training on there, but noted that sometimes you can get Inspo training free with unit purchase and Meg training can be expensive. I think training costs vary so much, it's not worth adding, and cheaper isn't necessarily better
Plus some units training can only be done abroad.

...added a couple more units

The Glass spun tins are not available yet, and it may be a while before they are.

Thought there was about 600 Meg units being dived??

Not counting the COPIS

Also the Meg can be ran both ECCR and MCCR.

It would be counting the copis.
AFAIC you can run any ECCR as a MCCR.

Not sure its 600 yet?

The manufacturers recommended depth limit for the Classic Kiss is 80m. It's 50m (I think) for the Sports Kiss.

On an MCCR, the rate of flow though the O2 orifice is governed by the Interstage Pressure (IP). On my KISS the IP is set to around 12 bar, giving it a theoretical max depth of 110m before the O2 stops flowing.

There are ways around this (eg smaller orifice, hence higher IP required) but the unmodded Kiss is normally deep enough for most people.
