This is a very human-centric disadvantage; it's fine for Jovian jellyfish creatures in a
Traveller type game where most things are scaled for humans, but not really appropriate if the baseline assumptions are different. (
GURPS Fantasy - Portal Realms has some good material on this sort of problem.)
It does occur to me that it's appropriate for use for people who need, e.g., to carry a supplemental oxygen supply about with them – the person I know who does this has a portable oxygen concentrator rather than anything involving pressurised gas, but it's a significant logistical consideration when they want to leave their home.
