For so many years it was forbidden fruit to even discuss solo diving. Things are changing, for the better, but it still has a ways to go. These discussions will continue even after solo diving becomes main stream and widely accepted. It's ok to be self sufficient whether diving with a buddy or not.
I see solo diving techniques becoming part of your basic open water cert. someday. When, I'm not so sure, but it is coming. It is always good to be able to rely on yourself. I believe this should be at the core of all training, even when you happen to be diving with a friend (buddy).
Even now it is a good course for everyone to have, even if they never intend on diving solo or if no charter service ever recognizes it as a valid certification. Good training and good practice using solo techniques can never replace the best buddy in the world.
