Thank goodness for that! Actually the "realism" I was refering to was the in game options. Of course no sim could be 100% realistic. Nothing could ever take the place of the real thing. I was trying to bring out the point that although some of us play at 100% realism settings, and try to get as close to "real" as a game could allow, the fact that we know all the historical shortcomings of equipment, ect.. kind of undermines that attempt. The example I used in the first post was the early war torpedoes. We know by virtue of history books, the problems they had. We also know the workarounds that were employed befor the problems were fixed.
