It's not just about the money. It's also about time. Do you know how many courses I took in the last three years? I think on average, it was 1.5 weeks per year. At some point, I just want to dive, and not spend my vacation doing yet another class (with 80% of the time being spent on repeating what I have already done in prior classes).
A cross over from one unit to the other takes 4 hours of diving and about the samefor explaining the unit, so if it takes more then two days there are a few options:
1) the first education is completly forgotten
2) you were buying the first certification instead of earning it
3) still narked from deep air diving before the cross over
