That could be the reason why it looks so complicated. In my personal experience my brain works only at 1% efficiency when I am sick. And Bernard loves to be a helping hand if I do decide to play SH3 in that condition. I can understand the boredom in your situation though. Hope your health will improve soon.
Manual targeting: Can't it be done simpler? I think the video made it more complex using the angle in the 'future position'-corner (the angle between the target's track and the uboot track). To measure the current AOB you could instead plot a current bearingline quickly on the map extending across the plotted target-track and measure the angle in between with a protractor. Less room for miscalculation and more visually. But the plotting itself is as simple as shown, even if it is laborious to do. I guess it also depends on how much you like to rely on guestimates or measurements. The stock Sh3 notepad procedure (what Freiwillige explained) is a reasonable middle way to do things, but leaves some room for error due to misjudgement (of AOB).
If that (180-bearing-weird angle) was the problem you might like to read "the Hunt" from Dantenoc. It is essentially the same plotting idea, but the end situation is much more simpler.

Same as link above but in youtube video(3 parts, noisy, hard to listen):
