The difference is that with SC, IIRC it is not that hard to change course manually - you set full rudder and the ship turns hard; you go to amidships and soon enough your ship steadies up. I remember changing course by setting the rudder myself rather than playing with the course functions because it is more responsive that way... and I tried to transfer this habit into DW, then I found out about the new physics model the hard way.

In DW, the automatic steering during hard turns is much more useful. Thus arguably for playability it should be retained. People that really like gentle turns could set it themselves because it would be easier to control manually than a hard turn would.
