When you zoom down you sea visual contacts and your sub but they are very inaccurate so you can not calculate solutions with them. In other words you still have to find solutions yourself. You see sonar contact lines which your sonarman report so you don't have to ask your sonarman manually every single minute. He tells you himself. When you are at the surface you will get inaccurate visual contacts on the map which tells about bearing and a little about range so you don't have to ask your watchman every single minute. This brings situational awareness without hindering realism.
