I disagree. The U-Boat Commanders Handbook has a section, no 48 in "Principles of Defence by Means of Sound Location", that deals with differences in temperature and salt content and how such conditions can be bad for sound locating. I don't know how much they used these factors, but they certainly weren't oblivious to them.
Okay then. I'm not the type who refuses to learn something new. Although I never read this book I know what it is about, so I believe what you're saying is correct (I really should buy a copy somewhere, could be interesting).

But there is still the question, to what degree it is modeled in the game. And I don't think it's a big one.
