I agree that having a set number of torps to sink a ship would be a bad thing.. but the Yamoto in particular was made almost unsinkable with many separate compartments. I think it real life it took about 20 torps to sink her, let alone all the bombs. One sub torped the Yamoto and it kept on sailing as if nothing had happened. It should definitely take more than 4 to sink her.
