Most are Type 101 (Tanker) - these would be showing up in large convoys that could historically have tankers in them (oil supply convoys for example). Type 108 (those you mentioned) in small, less protected convoys (along with small freighters). Type 104 tankers are coastal tankers that are not usually protected and are too small and slow to sail in convoys. You can spot them along the coast together with other small ships like fishing boats or coasters.
Yes, i did that intentionally. I didn't want some small tankers to appear in large trans Atlantic convoys regularly. I wanted to keep them in coastal and other shorter routs. In game, player won't notice any abnormality regarding 108 type assigned for some tankers...

in such case, maybe it makes sense to slightly correct Type 108 category name: "Small/Medium Freighter/Auxiliary Tanker"
That could do the trick...
