Her kai max evasion stat is 59, source is at http://www56.atwiki.jp/kancolle/pages/217.html

Low evasion = gets more hits = gets repaired more = bye bye resources.

Yes her armor is good but what use is that if the BBs manage to get a crit in? Most enemy BBs at events and endgame map use the 46cm equivalent cannons*2-3 which rips through most classes armor. Hence her saving point is the ability to be able to attack at moderate damage cause she WILL be damaged more often.

About Kaga vs Taihou on resource consumption, i say both are at a break even. Kaga = more bauxite and ammo, Taihou = more fuel and the need to get repair more often.

And yes, I agree that her firepower is definately the best out of all CVs but at the cost of Suvivability.
