Indeed, having 9 aircrafts in 1 slots is a lot better than mogami class homogeneous distribution with only 6 in the big slot, but having many aircrafts it's not really crucial for CAV, unless you're planning for a mix of surface combat, ASW support and opening airstrike damage boost. While farming E-1 for Hatsukaze, Suzuya 6 Seirans always lasted till boss node, even thou some got shoot down during every opening air strike phase. What really gives an edge here is their stats, with 77 FP and 82 torp their night battle double attacks are going to send ships flying.
