Like people have said above: It's the challenge.
Like getting bored with stock and then moving on to a super-mod, you may get bored eventually with auto targeting and try manual as a challenge.
The next challenge is to probably play with map contacts off. I'm not there yet though and probably never will be. As has been stated elsewhere, the choices are too extreme.
Map contacts on-too easy and unrealistic; God's eye view, GPS, etc.
Map contacts off-too hard and unrealistic; you as the captain are doing everything, including marking up a chart.(From what I've seen in that other forum, SH5 may be on a little better track when it comes to this.)
I think the assisted plotting mod helps this, but I haven't tried it out though.
I'd bet that once you do make the leap to manual, you'll never go back to auto.
