Very valid point. This point is actually talked about in the GWX manual, and how they used a formula to help make the patrol ranges more realistic. Not by changing the map per se, but by working out a formula to add the average number of KM you sail because it is straight and adding that into the range.

It's been a while since I read it, but it is in there. I'm sure someone could do the same with SH4.
