Is the Thomsen No Instant Death Screen Mod really effective?

The "FK" mods aren't downloadable, since I've never uploaded them anywhere.
I guess I could upload them, but the sound mod is just files I liked from other sources all put together so I could enable them all at once, plus alternate game music from the Das Boot soundtrack. At one point I had a list of which sounds came from which mods, but I can't find it.
It has alternate versions of the following files:
Depth charges exploding from submarine.wav
which I know is from Torpedo explosion.7z (probably from Jimbuna's Filefront page)
and
amb_SubmarineInterior.wav
Dive sequence.wav
P05_@Depthcharge_explosion.wav
all of which I'm pretty sure came from the DBSM (Das Boot Sound Mod). But I converted the first of those down to a smaller file, about 30Mb compared to the original which I think was around 50Mb.
It also has alternate versions of all the Ono_Cheers01.ogg and Ono_Cheers02.ogg files in the Speech subfolders, as well as all the xxxxx_New_message_received.ogg and at least some of the xxxxx_Depth_charges_in_the_water_sir.ogg files that are in there. The "new message" files are shorter than the GWX versions, I think I used the stock versions there to get rid of the long drawn out 'dit dit dit' business at the beginning. The other two files I think I may have taken from DBSM or one of its add-ons. At any rate the "cheers" files are empty, no sound at all, so it just eliminates that sound effect from the game completely.
The cap emblem mod goes with Rapt0r's Uniforms, he has a cap emblem texture that puts a "laughing swordfish" emblem on some of the crew's caps. I made an alternate version that puts my own boat's emblem (the valkyrie helmet) there instead.
As for the No Instant Death Mod, I haven't died since I installed it, so I can't answer that question.
