2 - Loving variety, I think that giving up one veterancy level out of five would be a shame.

3 - Possibly, there is some space for making "Poor" subs more effective, via AI or sensors tweaks. Or at least I hope so
Sounds good to me. As long as it is rare, we can use it to add variety. As you said, there's also no reason to think U-boat AI could not be improved, judging from TDW's successes with IRAI.
