It's one thing to land below minimums (as 0/0 certainly is) in the military, where you can very often be expected to do things with a low probability of survival.
It's another thing entirely to do it in a passenger airliner, and "depressurizing" at 8500' is nothing, you don't even need oxygen at all below 12,5 and even then only occasional usage for required crewmembers until 14,5.
