That makes more sense. Though CAs are pretty good for clearing/grinding 5-4 too, so you can level them pretty effectively there that way. In fact lately my 5-4 fleet of choice has been 1 FBB, 3 CA(V)s (at least 1 CAV to carry barrels, but the other two can be either), and 2 CVs. So lots of chances for CA experience.

Though obviously you don't want to use level 1 CAs for that sort of thing. But if you want to take a CA from say the 70s to the 80s or 90s then it's not a bad method.
