Yup! Now HMS Invincible really can be invincible (and would make an excellent minesweeper  )
More formally, if you have three surviving components with tonnage structure values of x, y and z, the chance of component x being hit first by a shot is:
x
P(x) = ------
x+y+z
So if x=0, P(x) (the chance of hitting x) is also 0.
