You know, that's what they said on interview as well... A special mechanic to use 7-ship fleet will be added for the Event. Even the interviewer asked Tanaka if they are going to go that far, since KanColle originally uses a 6-ship single fleet system.

Tanaka says it's all for the sake of the Event, and especially how this is the Sortie of the Nishimura Fleet.
