Probably not worth tinkering with a very, very good Mod.
I think at best you would end up with (typical crew for ship type) * (multiplier based on location, cargo, sea state) = crew loss. Since SH3 Commander randomizes the cargo and cannot know the sea state at the time of sinking, you'd just be adding a another layer of randomization.
That might "smooth" the results out some, but it is all eye candy in the end -- all generated post-patrol. I do chuckle a little when I learn that a merchant that exploded so spectacularly was only carrying mail, but by the next patrol, I cannot remember which one it was.
