Just one point, what you describe may be fine for calm seas but once you start getting high winds you're probably going to regret making this change as your periscope will be obscured a lot more by waves, infuriating with even 12m depth. I find it better to manually adjust the height of the periscope rather than fully extend it.
Your absolutely correct.

However, I'm in the Med and there isn't much "bad" weather here as in the Atlantic. And, usually if there is bad weather, at 11-12 meters, its pretty easy for aircraft or DD's to see and find you.

And I have been adjusting the periscope depth, it just gets "old" after a while.
