It's true what you say, they would have needed bigger and more modern submarines since the beginning of the war, like the type XXI. Let's not forget another important ingredient that played against the Germans, which was the cracking of the "Enigma" code by the Allies, which the high command of the Uboats was completely ignorant of. Your comments are very instructive! Gracias amigo!!

Sailing at 6 knots submerged the battery remained charged, I lowered the snorkel and then it started to drain the battery. How good!

PS: Bresking the enigma code was simply another factor or the "WIZARD WAR".
