No Map Contacts = Unrealistic?

To an extent I believe that no map contacts is unrealistic, if it is the realism feature I am thinking about.

First of all, isn't it reasonable that as long as the enemy ship is in sight, you would have him drawn on the TDC map? With no map contacts the map is completely blank and since you have no tools to draw on the TDC map you cant map the course of an NME ship and plot an intercept course. Doesn't this make the TDC map completely useless? I could be talking out my ass.
