Hmm,
Well I guess I'm in the minority then, I've used German speech almost from the beginning for the same reasons described here, but I recently switched back. The reason being I don't understand German, (I always read the subtitles) but I wanted to ditch the whole bottom information bar. I find now that I enjoy having to get information off the actual gauges rather than everything being at a glance, and of course now I can get info from my crew without having to read the translation. That big bar taking up a bunch of room on the screen is, in my opinion, a much bigger immersion-killer.
I kind of miss the old "ALAARRRM!" on the crash dives, but I don't really see the need to crash dive that often anyway.
