This is done because most countries have the same type of merchant ships. As in reality when the captain of a U-Boat was comming accross a merchant vessel he was looking at the generic Jane's Handbook he had instead of the lists of all active ships in each country. That means that you're able to attack a target without positive identification of its nationality (again as it was in reality). Imagine how difficult it would have been if you need to identify the target and look through a massive book for each country and each ship. By the time you would have the data the target would have reached its destination.
