To me its simple

Shalow diving >50m with a CCR is more dangerous than OC

Deep diving < 50m is safer on CCR.

Being deep in terms of actual depth or in terms of yardage of penitration into cave or wreck puts unacceptabley high time preasure on gas reserves.

Things that could be fixed easily with a bit more time or with less presure induced panic, will kill you on OC. On ccr they are just mildly anoying.
