A specific complaint concerns the thick bulkhead ahead of Nelson's A turret, which protects the magazine from the bow. The game model is alleged to omit that barrier. In the described gameplay result, a bow-on hit reaches the magazine and destroys the ship. The criticism therefore concerns the absence of a protective structure in the model, rather than only the numerical thickness assigned to armour.

Why Nelson's forward magazine bulkhead matters to a damage model
An allegedly missing forward bulkhead changes how the game handles bow-on hits to Nelson's magazine.
