Incredibly weird hullbreak situation

Wanted to ask, if someone knows, why this tank now hullbreaks from being hit by 105 mm and 86 mm kinetics? I feel like this is somehow tied to volumetric shell update, and it seems old rules of HB no longer exist?

https://wiki.warthunder.com/Damage_mechanics#Hull-break says that kinetics need to at least hit a critical module for instant K/O, but it seems hull itself on Warrior is now a critical module? At the very least, some patch notes said "120mm kinetics and 105+mm chemicals cause hullbreak for that tank", so I'd expect it to only instantly blow up from being hit anywhere if I got hit by 120 mm APFSDS or something along those lines.

For example, before this tank hullbroke if you hit its track even with like 50 mm gun (as long as it's not an autocannon, IE counts as normal tank gun), but it only worked if it was an explosive, like HEAT or HE. Fair enough, tank had ERA shield for that, whatever. It still exists, though, and royal teabag removed that comment anyway.

Yesterday it got hullbroken twice by being shot through from side (without hitting any modules directly) by Vickers MBT 105 mm APDS, and from the front by Strv 81 firing unknown shell, which has 86 mm gun, and I swear, apfsds of any caliber can hullbreak light tanks which don't have radiators, or at least 'something' in place of hit (like ZSU), so Rooikat can regularly bust them instantly.

So, basically, I'm either forced to write something utterly heretical again (and risk it being deleted), or I don't understand something/missed some patch note. Should I, and if so, should I apply screenshots? And if I really missed some memo, I feel like hull-break section needs to be rewritten by someone, I guess.
