So in reality the boat would have made straight for the antiaircraft sub-pen if room was available?

I would think so. I can't see any justification of parking a sub outside a bunker when there was room inside.

That would be like waiting outside an air raid shelter.

Maybe for "ceremonial" purpose, give the returning crew some "honors" or something like that.
Off course this is only a guess, i have no idea the routine they did follow upon their return to port.

Probably just a "cinematic license" the director took to make that ending.
