Hmm.. you are right that Taihou should be attacked more times, but there were times when I was exping Iku(she had about 10 level) with Imuya(who had about 45-48 level) and you know what? Even if Imuya had about 10-20 more evasion you know who was get hit more? Imuya. Before you will say something about putting flagship I sometimes swapped them so Imuya was flagship too and... Imuya was still getting hurt more than Iku, even if both of them had turbines on and Imuya had still 10-15 evasion more(with time difference was lesser), so I don't think 10 evasion more will make other CVs getting hit 2-3 times less than you say.

I admit I looked at Hiryuu page on this site and it clearly says 62 and my Hiryuu is only 39 level so I wasn't looking at her.

Evasion is like luck, you need 20-30 more to have clear difference, 10 won't do that much. Yeah, I will admit that my definition also says that 5 armor more isn't big difference as well, but notice that even if it's 5 armor difference form Kaga, it's 15 armor difference from Hiryuu and Soryuu and 15 is already lightly noticable(but still not as much as 20 or more).

Also as you see our site put wrong number for Hiryuu, so I can also doubt site which says Taihou can have maximum 59 evasion. You know, Taihou is 3-4 days and it's not drop or anything, so you can hardly even get her, therefore I'm free to say there is nobody who has her on 99 level, I would even say nobody exceeded 60 with her(people are rather focused on event and in my case I dropped exping Akagi after she reached level 50), so what if Taihou max will be 64? Or maybe even 69? Not to say all guns have hidden stats so it might be possible that better guns have higher accuracy, therefore having bigger evasion is as much helpful as bigger armor.

And are you sure how damage is counted? While I have seen BBs losing from 75 to 5-15 hp I have never seen DD losing more than 75% hp(60-70 form 75 is higher %) so having bigger hp pool could mean you will have just bigger chance to receive more damage and this means Taihou with lower hp have higher survivalibity.(of course it's pure speculation so I can't use this as proper argument here, but think about it)

Now about planes. Lets take Shoukaku for example, her operating hp is 37-38 and after that she loses ability to fight, because moderate or less makes her useless. Now lets look Taihou, her operating hp is 35 on full efficiency and 17-18 in 70% efficiency. 52-53 in total. Do you know any other CV how can fight for 52-53 hp? Because even Kaga can fight only with for 39 hp!
