Your right, and I would too if I had a multi-billion dollar tourist industry
I wanted to protect. I would think the majority of the divers, this doesn't
cause a problem.
It could be that I am isolated in this opinion being from an agency where the
recommended depth is 100 feet versus other agencies that have 130 feet (or
more) maximum bottom depths.
