The default AI detection DOES need work Beery, not to make it harder but to make it a little more... alive, shall we say.

You're right, it IS very effective, but only in certain circumstances. For example there's the fact that the AI is not even set on 'competent' early in the war, when in fact Japanese ASW didn't exactly improve through the course of the war. This severely affects the early war escorts (which are anemic) and skews results for late war escorts (which may be disproportionately deadly). There needs to be a middle ground, one that doesn't make things too hard but does make the enemy at least, well, get a little angry when they find you. Not to say neccesarily effective.
