In Civ:CTP, underwater tunnels are not vulnerable to attacks by bombers,
but they are subject to being pillaged by sea units.  Moreover, if a 
section of tunnel is pillaged, it destroys any land units which happen
to be in the tunnel, presumably because the tunnel gets flooded.

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence that it
is not utterly absurd; indeed, in view of the silliness of the
majority of mankind, a widespread belief is more often likely to be
foolish than sensible.
