But then again, there is this presentation that say there are
differences between normobaric hypoxia (i.e breathing oxygen poor
mixtures at sea level pressure), CADO (in a chamber at 10,000' altitude
breathing an oxygen poor mixture) and hypobaric hypoxia ( HH i.e full
chamber to 25,000').

It depends whether you want to know what you hypoxia symptoms (in
normobaric and CADO) are versus the rapidity of onset in HH (to
reinforce the urgency of the situation).

Thinking back to my previous post, one cause for sudden hypoxia for
glider pilots would be a sudden malfunction of the oxygen supply system
or running out of O2!
