It seems to me this causes destroyers to dc their own dcs, especially if there is more than one destroyer. Watched two destroyers take turns on nothing until they ran out of dcs yesterday. I was kilometers away. This seems to happen a lot.
This is not completely irrealistic. In fact the late war BOLD devices were designed to produce false echoes under water, and the disturbance created by DCs could probably do something similar, while also DDs frequently depthcharged around the last known Uboat positions even if not getting return echoes due to the disturbances, for additional increase of probabilities of a kill.
