I think its bad strategy to concentrate only on nuclear submarines, even moreso in a post cold war world.
I'm sure if the US Navy's primary submarine mission was coastal defense, they'd be singing a different tune.
But before I go off on a tangent, just check out this article:

On a semi-related note to the original topic, does DW+LWAMI represent the different lengths between TB-16 and TB-23? (And TB-29 I guess)
Also, while I'm asking, are the different sensitivities between towed-arrays taken into account?
I ask specifically regarding the 688i because that's what I normally use but any info on this would be appreciated.
