It's the way Lurker chose to set up his sensors. It's very difficult to have the AI detection and human detection be the same. When it is, it only works that way for a single set of circumstances. Change the weather or sea conditions and the relationship changes.
I think it's worse if the AI detects things before you can. I like the idea that if I go to the hydrophone station I might develop a contact that t he AI wouldn't. I like the idea that it might be worthwhile to go up on deck and take a binocular scan. Otherwise, why would you do it?
