"It's VERY simple... Adding one or two squirt to your drysuit as you descend is ALL you need."

When Wood started this dry suit issue which has gone to archive, about half the posters do it by the DUI book to use only the suit. Being new to dry suits about 35 dives, I have been using the suit only and taking lead off to minimize the bubble. Yesterday I tried it the way Ken and yourself recommend, to add just enough to handle the sqeeze and the balance in the BC to micro tune the bouyancy. I have to admit that it does work very well and the BC does inflate and deflate much faster which could be very important in an out of control ascent.
