Because those losses were due to non-combat like causes (scuttling during decomission, loss turing towing etc) they are irrelevant to the discussion of combat survivability.
Why you think that. Is russian/soviet subs have greater buoyancy only during combat?
USN/UK subs have same "low" buoyancy reserve all the time. Statistically they should be sunken in accidents more often than russian subs.
