I don't know about historical accuracy, but as far as my experience with this sim, I agree with you 100%. If I can maneuver for a ~90 degree shot, I set impact pistol for 1/2 to 2/3 of the target's draft, aimed at fuel bunkers or engine rooms. In calm seas, I will often take a high oblique magnetic shot, set for 1.5 meters below the keel. In high seas I eschew high angle shots and break contact, race ahead and set up for a 90 degree shot with impact pistol.
