O2 consumption _is_ depth dependent. To achieve a ppO2 of 1.3 on 70m in a
XL "bladder" from a 10/50 Dil consumes more O2 than achieving ppO2 of
1.3 in a Air Dil at 30m.
The O2 metabolism will just be proportional to the workload, but to
calculate the O2 metabolism from the used O2 volume we would need a
counter-lung+loop+scrubber+head estimate.
