That is utter BS because the first sensor and last sensor any competent OOD uses his his eyeball. In between he will check the radar plot, which he will keep himeself - in addition to the plot in CIC - and if the radar is telling him something different from his eyeball he will first believe his own eyes.
Also, he will call the CO and tell him that he needs to come to the bridge.
That’s the way it should be done.
