surface: first fleet has first shelling round which will help preserve your second fleet for a healthier night battle. You can bring heavier ships like 3 BB/V. Downside is you can't use 2 CV for AS on boss node. If you have the top tier green planes, 2 good CVL, and enough seaplane bombers you can still get AS even with a surface fleet for the best of both worlds. Else you can go 1 CV with 3 strong greens to at least get AS on carrier hime and brute force your way on boss node.

quick response: You can bring 2 CV or 2 CV + CVL to help secure AS+ on carrier hime and AS on final boss form if your planes aren't quite top tier. Downside is second fleet fires first and might take more damage on boss node and in the process of getting there.
