Since Diamonds have reduced air exposure, how bout increased lava exposure?

It would also add more usage to the lava aquifiers! Players would have to figure out how to harvest the diamonds without burning them.

  I just want to point out that water & lava are not air, and so they will generate next to lava & water as easily as in normal stone. Personally, I think the whole lowered air exposure thing should be removed entirely (or almost entirely) so that we have a real incentive to explore the caves, even though we know they are dangerous (filled with mobs usually, also gravel traps, lava, & falling)

  I think there could be at least one ore that generates at least partially with increased air exposure, which would bring me back to the caves more often, rather than branch-mining at the best Y level. 

  Also, I think they should increase the height range different ores generate at (or add another new ore [or two] to mine) that way you actually get a variety of ores (at least two or three) to find while mining, adding to the fun.
