Lookouts in GWX3?

Hi All,
When I was trained for lookout duties in the RN, more years ago than I care to remember! the first rule was that a report without a bearing was totally useless. so why then is there a constant litany of 'Ship Sighted', but no bearing in GWX3. After scanning all round and finding nothing I start to ignore these useless reports. If my bridge watch have such good eyesight why don't they share these nuggets with their skipper, who is obviously blind as a bat?
