I confess I came very close to putting a value of 1 on one of the options I wouldn't select now anyway, thus keeping my realism to 99%, so I would still have the option to teleport home.
But when I started using limited fuel the point of that was to make it so I would have to take into account the journey home when I was looking at fuel consumption and reserves, which I have done a good job of so far - the only reason I ever teleported after that was if I was just loading a patrol to test a mod out and then needed to exit again so I could make some changes, or maybe because I was very close to home anyway but didn't want to plod slowly through the harbor as constant ship/plane sightings dropped me to 8 TC over and over again.
Now If don't feel like dealing with the harbor traffic I use Commander to start and end at sea, so that's not really an issue. And if I'm testing mods I don't get fair enough away from my start point that teleporting is even necessary to re-dock.
Plus I like keeping patrol logs and it wouldn't look right if it showed a ship sunk in grid AM52 one day and then "returned: Wilhelmshaven" the next.
(I should add that the first patrol, I did actually play at "real" 100% realism. Since there was no hunting or being hunted, it wasn't really much of a difference, except I kept hitting the key for ShipCam and then grumbling because I didn't have one!)
