that is all.
Not to put too fine a point on it, he isn't "in command of a submarine", he is trying to play a game where the manual (the major source of "training" for that game) is a joke, being a game it also lacks the sort of feedback that being in command of a sub would give ie you can't neccessarily hear noise when you are too loud, that is why the original noise meter was a realistic option, all it did was make up for a game limitation.
He makes some good points.

Some of us "old hands" know how to be quiet.

Others trying to learn might need a crutch. Or a gentle lesson or two.
