What would a mult crew do? 99% of the time they're sitting around wating for something to happen, then each of them clicks one button and it's all over, then wait some more. The game is too simple for a mult crew on one boat, even if they made it twice as complex. My opinion is this game pivots on complex game logic, AI and historical immersion. The player just needs to make a few simple timely decisions.
To elaborate, what would the diving officer do? Maybe he gets to press S or P every 8-24 game hours.
What would the Torpedo Man do?
Imagine being the Watch Officer and staring at the horizon for endless hours.
If you have a Chief, he would do 50% of the work, the CO, 40% and you 10%.

Let the AI do the boring stuff and I'll be the captain. Gives me something to do a few times a day.
