then order a different depth before the boat gets down to the 75m(?) that the crash
dive ends at your boat will become less stable at low speeds.

Wait until the boat leavels off after a crash dive before ordering a new depth.
I would say that its number 2 point you raised. Quite often after a crash dive, once the boat is under, I order the planes into Dive mode to keep the boat going down.
