Yes, its good to get a report, but if i am not reading the thing totally wrong, i do get the feeling that there are two different reasons for this accident.
1. He forgot to turn on the O2 bottle.
2. He forgot to turn on the displays.
Remember guys, plan the dive and dive the plan. The 5 minutes it is going to take you to do an immediate predive check might save your life and save your loved ones from alot of grief.

Hmmmm,
A little ambiguous,'oxygen providing rebreather equipment' could (and probably does) imply just the hand sets.
My two concerns here then (and I talk from experience) would be handsets swithing themselves off (bounce) ...... know your PPO2 aside.
and ..... where a rebreather goes to confirm it was working prefectly well .... the manufacturer?! An independent would be my preferred option for an unbiased report.
No disrespect intended to anyone.
