I just meant that a dive computer would not recommend I do the things Anton had me do, which was descend to deep water (30 meters) and stay for a significant period of time (five minutes) and then ascend quickly. We wouldn't have been able to see all the caves and stalactites he wanted to show me if a nanny-state dive computer had been there, because that route would not have been safe.



I'm getting downvoted presumably because of my nanny-state joke. Fine, I still think it is funny to assert that a dive computer is actively participating in the nanny state. I'll never back down from that joke.
