If it was a slow death, they should score. It almost seems the same effect as when you run over fishing boats, rafts, ect...they blow up, but you get no credit.
I would like to see ramming credited, even if you damage your ship. I got little damage by just slowly pushing..run full into, your gonna pay.
As you mentioned, wish someone could fix the bottom out bug. You should be able to sit on the bottom at zero speed without your ship falling apart in a minute.

well what i do in that situation is surface on the high side of the ship right up against it. his guns are angled so they cant reach you and use armor piercing rounds so it doesnt blow up and you with it. pepper the hull below the waterline with about 10 or 15 rounds spaced evenly across the hull and then submerge and back away to a distance just in case it does explode.
thats usually enough to make it sink and you get credit for it.
as for bottoming out you can do it but come to a complete stop (that means its been on zero for at least a full minute) then lower your depth to about 10 meters off the bottom then 1 meter at a time lower the depth setting. it takes forever but you can do it, the key is to barely kiss the bottom then once there lower depth about 20-50 meters more to hold your position without sliding around. this usually causes no damage as long as you are not moving horizontally.
