So why is it difficult to handle the stages on the left for left-handers ?
In all honesty, it isn't: my left is my more dextrous hand, though I am reasonably ambidextrous. Surely, two clear disadvantages of putting all tanks on one side are trim and increased risk of mixing up the tanks: I can't see what advantages would outweigh that, though I'm perfectly happy to be persuaded there's a better method. I'm here to learn, and I understand you're a very experienced diver. I understand that the main reason for DIR gentlemen to hang left is to mount their scooters right-handed: that wouldn't suit me.
