It uses the ascent speeds that you set. Would your rather assume some standard 
speed like 18m/min or 10m/min? I don’t think this would be a good idea.

Just as a remark: It seems, in their most recent versions both major dive 
planning programs v-planner/multi-deco and pasta deco added their version 
recreational mode (or something like that: Stay as long on the bottom as the 
gas allows). It seems, we were trend setters somehow…
