I've always wondered - in game are there any deletrious effects if the outer doors are kept open?

I suppose in real life that would be a Very Bad Idea as, if I recall correctly, torpedoes don't take very well to prolonged submersion in sea water. But in the game, what would happen? About the only thing I can think of is that the sub becomes noisier submerged, if in fact this is modeled, due to the open doors (disturbed water flow and all that). Or maybe the fish have a higher rate of failure.

Anyone knows?
