I think the important point is not to cover mold or rot. On my Cabana back in the day that I covered over the floor spongey but was not water damaged. I guess it was poor engineering and a poor diet on my part that was the issue.
I pulled back the linoleum, inspector from the underside, and found no leaks or stains. Going over water damage and not addressing it would only work if were going to deceive some poor unsuspecting person and pass on your problems at your gain. Personally I couldn't live with myself if I did that. YMMV
