I do military stuff for living and play SHIII for fun. In my opinion GW11 has made SHIII extremely enjoyable and immersive. Not everybody (at least not me) wants "extreme realism", meaning extremely difficult gameplay. For me the realism in GW11 is just right - a great way of
enjoying an early sunday morning. Also, usually "realism" tends to be totally different from "difficulty". I use manual targetting and am happy I can hit a ship with enough torpedoes and sink it. If I wanted extreme realism I would probably join the navy

(Waiting anxiously for GWX, hoping both for realism and being able to enjoy the GWX without 5 years of proper submarine training.
