You are right and wrong. It always worked but not for refreshing the air. Your C02 levels will still rise, but the diesels will work and increase your speed. I escaped a bad situation once using it with one of our IJN subs when the electrics were destroyed (well actually one destroyed, the other badly damaged) When I could I would raise the snorkel make a short run at flank then lower it, repeat. I got far enough away from the DDs and finally I escaped on the surface.
