Thank you Capt. Obvious.
Yes and no…
You and your team can do quite well, but if both teams are mostly made up of Gaijin-bots (which is more common in coastal, but Its not that uncommon in bluewater as well) then the amount of rewards you get is notably lower than perhaps it would have been if both teams were made up of only players. Whilst yes, you can kill the bots far easier than players. I dont think its enough to compensate for the reduction in reward killing bots gets.
TLDR: Naval economy is balanced around 12-16 players vs 12-16 players and not 4 players and 12 bots vs 4 players and 12 bots and could do with a bit of an adjustment.
