From what I understand, the German armed forces tended to be... disciplined.
I'd like to have the patrol grid renown returned. It's a simulator after all, and that includes simulating following orders from your commanders. The way I figure is that even if you're sailing at 100% realism, manual targetting and all, unless you're travelling to, reaching, and patrolling your assigned grid for 24 hours, then you're not truly simulating a uboat patrol. You can always go tonnage hunting afterwards with BDU's blessing.
Feel free to disagree, but you know I'm right.
[edit] Oh, and before anyone gets haughty, I know why the renown for reaching the patrol grid was removed. But I still think that it was a reasonable feature to keep, or at least leave as optional. It saves having to edit the config files.
btw, does anyone remember how much renown was given in stock shiii for reaching and patrolling your assigned grid? I've forgotten.

Reaching patrolgrid = 500
Patroling patrolgrid for 24 hours = 200
Docking at home port = 100
All removed in GWX2.1 I'm afraid....the home port renown has never worked anyway...stock bug
