You can however open the tubes at pretty much any depth I think. It's the torpedo that counts not the submarine, since both a type VII and a XVIII could launch a G7a G7e etc.
I hardly believe that the torpedo would implode at 50 meters... The probable reason was the added pressure required to lunch it.
