The single torpedo hit normally would not have sunk Taiho. In fact, she was still floating and conducting normal air operations six hours later. What finally killed her was inept damage control procedures when the poorly trained chief damage control officer vented fumes not overboard but into previously uncontaminated spaces where sources of ignition were.
