Understand this will be the opinion of most people and it's absolutely respectable.
Some people just like a little more challenge everytime so the game doesn't become too repetitive, and having real life experience at sea, I feel at ease with it.
It just adds to the immersion and a little uncertainty, on top of some work to do while you spend some boring days with no contacts...

PS : if you read my post above, you will see that during an attack, the real positions are not important, it's only the relative ones that matter. You can plot your attack on a piece of paper without ever going to the map. I also used the word "immersion" and not "realistic"...
Also if you read my post carefully, you will see I didn't do the job alone. The Ctrl-click simulates the fact that my navigator has done his job, the depth were given to me by the same nav officer, the sound contact in Lampedusa was found and followed by the sonar operator. I used the info gathered by my team to take decisions, which is the job of the Kapt'n...
