Can't agree with you on that one. Have sunk many warships in heavy storms/rough seas with a shot to the boilers or forward magaznies. Have sunk the Hood, Nelson, Rodney, and several revenge classes with just 1 well aimed eel. While there were some good explosions they weren't followed by, "she's going down" until at times hours later. As long as you did the initial or final damage to a ship and it sinks later on (can be several hours) you still get the credit for it. If by chance there is an air strike that hits the same ship you just hit you're SOL, you get a grey icon and the Luftwaffe would be the one credited with the kill regardless of how much damage you inflicted (in the game, irl those situations were more complicated and proper credit was given out when appropriate).
