Actually balanced slots are not that good, since the general usuage is largest slot: Green planes, 2nd: Blue planes, 3rd: Red planes and smallest for scout planes or equipment like radars or damcon. So a carrier with skewed distributed slots is better than balanced slots of the same number, unless you are putting all blue planes.

Shoukaku has a fan base and they would support her and gives reasons of why she's good, but usuage wise Kaga is the best with the large palne slot for green planes, followed by Hiryuu kai ni (high FP, luck and good skewed slot distribution) and Taihou (can shell at medium damaged). Zukaku is also a better choice (higher luck) unless you do not believe in the luck stat.
