Yeah. Leaving the UX-issues aside. Don't ever use submodules to manage dependencies inside of each polyrepo, it will eventually accumulate duplicate, conflicting and out of date sub-dependencies. Package managers exist for a reason. The only correct way to use submodules is a root-level integration-repository, being the only repo that is allowed to have submodules.
