Good:

Kasuga Maru - The only CVL usable in Transport Combined Fleet

Naganami - Can equip FCF / SFCF; Kasumi K2 is better for transport FCF since she can equip Daihatsu but Naganami can sub for Kasumi when you need another DD SFCF.

Tama - CL mulling seaplane fighters is the norm now.

Okay:

Arashio - My go-to DD when I need a strong Daihatsu DD

Convenient:

Second ABKM - Yes, you heard that right. A second ABKM is, in fact, very convenient to avoid shiplocking your TCI ABKM or your seaplane mules Tama / Yura.

Kinu - Best CL for depleting TP bar quickly

Suzuya / Kumano CVL - Good for cheap support expedition and tanky fighter mules. Only go for it if you're getting Suzu/Kuma K2 dups.

Zara - Nice for 2-5 and 4-5 monthly, but that's about it.

Terrible:

Nagato - I never understood the use case for Nagato. The boss needs to be hard enough that you don't want to sortie Kongou-class but easy enough that you don't want to sortie Yamato-class. That kind of situation simply doesn't exist. She has been sitting around doing nothing ever since I K2 her.

Katsuragi - The Unryuu-class is never worth a BP other than Unryuu, specifically for that one fighter quest. Even then, you're screwed if you forgot to max the fighter before converting.
