No contridiction, it's not like her torp stat stops her from targeting an installation, it simply doesn't count for damage calculation.

If you look at Combat (and the main article) you can just do some guesstimation and see Bismarks firepower x 2.5 from the T3 puts her at or near NB FP cap.

Though probably not the intent when Slash was building his fleet, but there is a good bit of pragmatisim in Bis vs some other FBB. It would be sensable to assume people using this guide for E7H would not only have Bismark, but would be more likely to have her wife'd and her guns heavily improved when compaired to either of the Pastas for example. The Pastas overall higher FP would be better served in the main fleet.
