It seems with RSRD the convoys don't sail at whole-knot speeds. They can be at pretty much any fraction of a knot. This introduces doubt in your speed measurements, because you can't just round off. Is it 10.2 or 10.4 or the 9.8 from your most recent measurement? If you mistakenly choose at the wrong end of the range, at least one or two of your torpedoes can be expected to miss, unless you are up close.
