I know that, the crux of my argument was, it isn't even paticularly good at BEING a submarine simulator. For every detail SH pays attention to, it completely misses or half asses 2 others. How about the magically disappearing torpedoes? Merchant convoys that never call for air support and let you just surface rape them? Attacking aircraft that helpfully fly straight at you and miss all of the time? If you ever try to do anything that doesn't conform exactly to the formula...
A. Submerge
B. Torpedo at 90 degress.
C. Run away
...the game has no idea what to do and just ****s itself. To this day the worst example of this are the game's awful AI routines. If I had a penny for every damaged battleship the British didn't even bother detaching a DD escort for and just totally abandoned.
