Rigging for Ultra quiet reduces your passive sonar signature by 2~3 db. Reducing speed below 5Kt can further lower your signature by another 3 db. For sure, that can make the difference between detection and stealth. The instant you reload, raise speed above 5Kt, or make any kind of repair, you are no longer ultra quiet.

I have to say that decoys and knuckles work well for me,
