Remember what just 6 u boats did off the Us coast. Now think about Doenitz's desired 300 or more.
That's true in theory. But if the Germans had tried to build up their U-Boat force anywhere near that number before the war, history would have unfolded differently - that act alone would have triggered a war much earlier.

There was no realistic way to achieve those numbers.
