I tend to stay in my assigned grid for two reasons:
1. I like history and to me some of the fun of playing SH3 comes from trying to get some feeling of what sort of things the commander of submarine would have thought of. A Kaleun changing his patrol grid without an order or an order giving him free movement would probably have been an ex-Kaleun when returning to port.
2. At least once I would like to make it to the end of the war. Every quiet day is one day out of danger, one day closer to peace, one day closer to better decoys and one day closer to snorkel which I have never yet had.

good point i do a manual RTB though so if i divert and spend 24 hours in a grid i know brings good hunting it is still accuerate. you also forget 1 thing that the captains had some free reign sometimes they would patrol somewhere else and if they brought in a good ammount of tonnage the kaleun would be rewarded. also in GWX you may get the message if you havent sunk anything to continue patrols in suspected areas of shipping or something along that line that (i cant remember i just report in for the accuracy of it don't even look at the responses anymore) so that could be interperted as do as you wish just return alive.
sorry just my thoughts
