That fix may work for Only X damage types, at least for mines.

I launched a quick test, and here are the results: the warheads do not stack, so a mine with four warheads able to do 100 damage each will *not* be able to destroy a component with 200 hit points. (The same goes true for a mine able to deal 200 damage)

Obviously, the armoured engine was mostly targetted, thus protecting the much weaker engines. (They have been destroyed from time to time though, but adding more mines or warheads only increases the odds to destroy some vulnerable components) So it does seem that the damage done by special warheads do not stack, and the warheads will not go for the weak components when they cannot take down a sturdier component.
