It's definitely good to read the discussion and then form your own opinion. While I personally dive snorkel-in, I would not claim it is universally safer way to do. There are certainly pros and cons of each method. If you are pushing your limits and dive with a buddy (which you should always do), having the snorkel out just makes really sense.There has been an interesting discussion a few weeks back about this, where the conclusion was that it's actually safer to keep the snorkel in while diving.
