Yeah, it was a failed attempt at humour - posting something that was obviously wrong. I won't try that again

You know you were arguing with yourself there? Who puts words into your mouth, if not yourself?

He's said that from earlier on, but all he's saying is that you need to know whether the target is travelling from port to starboard or starboard to port, in order to know whether or not to put the target at 080 or 280. He's not saying you need to know the exact course (at that point). If he were saying that you need to know the target course, then the method would at least make sense, but he isn't saying that, so it doesn't make sense.

How do you know this? This is the question you've never answered. Are you relying on the very narrow speed range given by the sonar operator and by constant you mean near enough to constant (as who cares about a degree or two)? Looking forward to the test mission explanation.
