Oh absolutely. I'm not arguing against that. You CAN get that information in the game, just that it's not how we're used to it and, ahem, not exactly completely logical. I will totally agree that the design of the interface is rather poor for anyone who expects to play with anything but simplified settings where instrumentation and solid grasp on situational awareness don't matter. As I said elsewhere, I think it's important to acknowledge that part of the issue is our own "old" SHIII/IV situational awareness habits, but the current interface couldn't be any less helpful in this.
