Anyone keeping count...

Why be so worried about statistics? How many OC divers croaked this year for whatever reason? A whole lot more than rebreathers. It isn't going to stop our diving nor does it make diving (or rebreather diving) any less safe.

People are going to die this year during everything from a very inactive activity like while sleeping - to crossing the street, falling off a ladder, skydiving, to climbing everest, and cave diving.

Those who ACTUALLY have dove on rebreathers (unlike some mouth-critics), who know them and how they work, are quite pleased with the ability of this tool to provide success for their underwater adventures.

If it's not for you, then DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT!

Nobody is going to make you dive one. And sometimes you don't have to have an opinion on something.

Maybe people with opinions and "recommendations" should ACTUALLY dive on a RB80 (or ANY rebreather for that matter) before judging, recommending, or recommending against it.
