Yes, you obviously have missed some of the posts. And no, the TDC doesen't work, it doesen't give you ranges from metric to imperial. Not ALL ships had their dimensions porked, some were accurate and some weren't and anything between. So it is possible to get good hits in vanilla 1.2 with some ships. Point is that now the big and small errors have been corrected. And they were errors, not features. Besides, shooting 10 torpedoes with 60% hit rate to some random ship does not qualify your information to say that there's nothing wrong with the game.
What comes to inaccuraties, I rather take a game that's working and has the essential data even somewhat accurate. I can easily find the immersion factors somewhere else than a crappy finishing of the game.
