Right tool for the dive. I totally agree with redundant buoyancy, but think that you should be diving the equipment necessary for the dive. Right now I dive in shorts and a t-shirt, when I get to the level that I will have to be doing deco stops then obviously I'll need something that will help me stay warm on extended periods of non-movement. Suddenly the guy that never wore a wet-suit will be in a dry suit and you guys will give me grief for it. But it will be required for those dives. I think a safety sausage is a viable alternative for some dives as redundant buoyancy and not for others.
Again, just my uneducated opinion, it will surely change.
