Do you have any idea how many compartments are in an A/C carrier?
You could actually bomb the smack out of a carrier for days and it might not go down, unless you hit right spots.
The Hornet at battle of Santa Cruz took so many hits and was still afloat. It was ordered to scuttle her, and she was still afloat.

I'm just saying it wouldn't be much fun, if you never sunk the ships.
Afterall, it was pretty important warships stayed afloat. There were alot of men on those ships depending upon the ship to take them back to home port. So, ships definitely were designed to take a great deal of punishment.
