The thing with Shinano is that's the ship was pretty huge but it couldn't actually sortie a lot of planes. In fact, the amount of planes she could send out is closer to a light carrier than a main carrier.

She did have a lot of storage though which let her carrier a ton of planes (that she couldn't actually use in battle) for transport to air bases or to replace planes on their carriers. So she was more of a plane transport than a actual carrier.

This means when she's implemented, the devs will either give her a large non-historical buff or make a new mechanic for her (resupplying other ships and restocking planes while sortiing).
