How much deco do you think these gnomes build up?

Maybe they only go to 50m+ at certain times in the day, and spend the
rest of the time at 6m.

Well, they've probably built up many months of deco by now, but doesn't DCI
only become a problem once you start to ascend? Therefore you could argue
that it would be unethical to recover the gnomes from depth without allowing
them to complete all deco stops... I can just imagine the police divers
visiting every week to move them another metre up the side of the lake!
