No, automatic targeting is not quite just point and shoot, the difference is, with auto targeting, you don't need to work out range, speed of ship, or the AOB the computer does that part for you. Depth, pistol, and speed are determined by you.
It is point and fire to a degree, but if you just point the scope or Uzo at something and press fire you are still leaving a hell of a lot to chance. Even with automatic targeting you still need to get into a good firing position to the ship. You still need to make sure your torpedo is set to the right depth for optimal destruction, and you still need to get to firing position without spooking your target.
All in all, if you have not managed to get a good firing position the rest is useless.
