By the honor system, one shouldnt use this option unless he was able to break surface again.

Personnally i like having this option. My latest IXC career ended because i got nailed by a single hedge hog while diving. It didnt destroy the boat, but it really ruined hull intergrity and i couldnt stay under, i HAD to surface or be crushed/flooded/drowned. So i blew ballast, and went to flank speed to surface before i was crushed.

Surfacing is a death sentence in SH3, but realistically you'd manage to get a good portion of your crew out of the boat. (of course the merits of being able to realisticaly survive a hedge hog hit and surface at all is sketchy )
