If I'm not mistaken, a carrier does full shelling damage unless ALL of its bombers are shot down. Fighter combat, which only shoots down a percentage of planes (up to 90% per slot in AS+), can never disable a carrier. That's where fleet AA def and AACI come in. A stronger AACI means that you can empty smaller slots consistently, and actually stand a chance of emptying larger slots.

Sometimes getting to the boss is harder than killing the boss itself (takoyakis). In those cases I'd rather have better survivability over the unreliable mixed CI.
