In addition, some bright spark noticed that the sonar lines drawn on the map terminate at the exact range of the target, so really, i think that updates off is better.

Didn't know that.
If one uses this feature it would be too easy again, that's right.
But otherwise the sonar lines themselves seem o.k. They only get updated when the sonar guy is set to scan all around and not follow any specific contact and they even don't get updated in realtime but more like in distinct time periods, with every sweep of the sonar or something like this. So it doesn't give too much information away.
That every single ship of a convoy gets it's own sonar line doesn't really matter, it's still just a big black bulk of lines in the end
. But the rough idea where the incoming escorts are is very valuable and one can use the 'Bearing to next warship' and 'Follow next warhip' functions to get a good idea where to head in order to evade one DD and not run directly into another.
