Actually it slows the boats speed as only 1 prop is running, the others engine being used to recharge the battery.
I think the scenario is (and this happens to me a lot):
Drop to periscope depth to check the hydrophone. You pick up a ship and plot it's course but it's quite far away and to intercept you need to go full speed on the surface asap. You surface the boat and the auto-recharge kicks in so you have to then turn it off.. occasionally you forget to turn it off and don't realise that you're 3-4 knots slower than the max speed for a few minutes (accelerated time is normally the culprit) and you miss the intercept.
Either way, having it auto or manual, sometimes you will forget to change it I guess! One way you lose a potential target, the other way your battery isn't charged when you might need it to be.
Each to their own and all that.
All a bit irrelevant if it's hard coded though
