The only alternative to the OTL that makes any sense at all was to find a way to quietly build more U Boats = and that is pretty hard. Though if you build two parts while publicly building one part (hiding the other part for assembly at a remote site) you could possibly double the size of the U Boat fleet without it becoming too obvious. It would take a lot of work and planning to hide it but I guess it would be possible. (sailing identical U BOATS with identical numbers on separate days is a possibility). BUT even then you have maybe 60 available vs the 30 of the OTL. Would they make that much of a difference? Probably not- BUT with the already increased capability of production then it would take a lot less time to get more. A lareger UBOAT force in early 40 instead of late 40-early 41 = that could make a big difference.
