This is simply false.

All compartments have their own HP (even damage control). All compartments have their own damage. All compartments show their own damage on mouse over. All compartment damage is repairable (unless destroyed).

The hull damage is not displayed anywhere in game that anyone has EVER documented. To my knowledge, the only place you can see it is in save files. Hull damage can not be repaired, except in port.
