Like all AACI girls her job is strictly defensive - protecting fleet from air attacks. And she's the best for that job.

Don't expect her to do OASW, TCI or carry loads of extra equips. But then you don't expect ABKM, Gotland or Ooyodo to wipe out 100+ enemy bombers either.

As far as giving up ABKM or 4 slotter for her... Not all maps are event maps. Not all event maps are combined fleet maps. Not all combined fleet maps really need ABKM or 4 slotter. And even in the combined fleet maps requiring ABKM there can be situations when Atlanta in main fleet (or as a second CL in TCF escort fleet) can still be an advantage.
