The CGT is designed similarly. Collisions will easily buckle the exterior consuming the forces leaving  the carbon tub in tact. However, the design can not withstand a collision with an immovable object. 

 

You are correct, the tub has it's limits, actually more accurately, human's limit. Human can only withstand so many Gs, A carbon tub can be totally intact after a collision but the human inside may not survive.
