This happened to me yesterday actually and it got me killed (the pressure hull thing)
It's not really a bug, but more like an unfortunate choice of words. When you hear the crew speech "pressure hull intact" it should actually say "bulkhead intact". When you look at the Repairs screen, you'll see that the sub has several bulkheads and any one of them can be damaged. And as long as there still is a bulkhead damaged, you won't be able to dive deep before you suffer critical damage... Maybe we could just substitute the "pressure hull" .ogg speech file with something more descriptive.
