Sounds like reality to me. Changing depth affects the trim of the boat, and the only way to fix that is to run the pumps, which makes a lot of noise. The slower the boat goes, the harder it becomes to maintain balance and depth. In Aces Of the Deep after silent running for awhile you would get a message "Cannot maintain depth without running the pumps."

I have not encountered that problem yet, but it sounds good to me.
