Who actually uses the PK?

After a few hours of research I saw first hand the effectiveness of the Dick O'Kane method for accurately hitting your target. This is especially true if you are attacking a convoy from long-ish range to increase your chances of evading escorts. The PK seems flawed and and has much less margin of error. Convoys don't appear much more difficult as AoB and speed won't change between targets, only range, but Dick O'Kane method takes range out of the equation. The only time I can see using the PK is if you are really in a hurry (ie DD is bearing down on you and you send a fish his way to slow him down). Am I wrong in my thinking or am I missing something about effectively using.the PK?
