There is no implication of that in Poe's statement. In fact, you
correctly interpreted his statement to mean "repetitive dives".
A better NIT would have been, "They could have downloaded Poe's
detailed profile (if he carried a divecomp that saves such or if
Poe used a HyperAqualand watch) for the ONE dive in question.
Again, there is no implication of such in Poe's statement.
