Default Listening to Sonar at Periscope Depth

I know this has been discussed in other threads but wanted to make it a separate thread for visibility and hopefully the DEV team will read it.

I believe I read somewhere that US subs could not listen to sonar while at periscope depth and therefore this is not a bug but a realism feature. First, I find this odd since US subs hovered much deeper at P depth than U-boats so one would think using sonar would be easier for US subs. Either way, I think this should be something users can select as a realism option much like dud torpedoes or realistic load times.

I can't think of any sub sim where you could not use both while submerged.
