This design serves as a crucial safety measure, aiming to minimize the risk of the entire ship sinking if one area is compromised.

The same concept is helpful to limit the scope of failure in the architecture of large systems where you want to partition your system to decouple dependencies between services. The idea is that one failure should not cause the entire system to fail, as shown in the following diagram:
