In the Star Trek Mod, Structural Integrity Fields have 0kt structure, but they also have the "hit before other components" attribute. They therefore do take damage.

Don't you mean they have 0kT size, not 0kT structure?

I think that is what he meant. Anyways, the original idea behind them was to provide a first hit option that could protect against a hit or two before the hull was damaged since the mod employed both leaky armor and shields.
