I'm with you in feeling both ways. I've seen the bottom in water that was around 80-100 feet deep, but only a couple of times. In Lurkers OM he also allowed planes to see fairly deep, and it made North Sea operations unhistorically difficult.
That said, the North Sea and the Pacific are far different. Sorry I can't help more, but I really can see the arguments for both sides.
I did, however, vote for the change, as my own personal playing abilities aren't all that great, and I need all the help I can get.
