Well, if you do multiple dives that are all in Subsurface then the
answer is yes for both the ceiling and the planner.

BTW: what's ceiling in German?

You can have endless discussions on the validity of any of those
calculations - just go to a deco forum online.

Since we currently use the same values for display and planner I don't
really want to make the defaults all that agressive, but I am in no way
married to the 30/75 if you have a better suggestion for the default.
