What is SH3's defenition of flooded?

A long time irritation of mine (and I hope many others) is the dreaded 'flooded' screen that seems to pop up to darn fast without any visible reason.

//NOTE, these situations are above crush depth//
SH3's defenition of 'flooded': One or two compartiments destroyed/flooded = insta black screen o'death..

My defenition: Only when when every last damn compartiment is flooded and waters starts filling the command comp. I may consider my boat flooded... NOT SOONER!

I mean, there is no slow agonizing trip to crush depth, only one full DC hit and you get the flooded screen smacked in your face. Can one or two DC's really destroy your boat in a milliseccond?
The flooded message just comes to damn quick imho, why can't I be alive when the forward torpedo + forward quarters are flooded? Sure I will most certainly die, eather by sinking to deep or sitting on the seafloor waiting for the oxigen to run out, well, so be it! That's how it was.

Can't we remove all 'death's' with the exeption of going to deep? That way you will still die when aproaching crush depth (because of flooding) but you will at least know (and see) why.

Any thoughts on this?
