^^Taihou doesn't work for 2-2 preboss branching rule. But then one can also argue that slow BBs didn't work for a certain branching rule for autumn 2013 E4 and no one said that people had to list slow BBs differently from fast ones. Also as I said before http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/kancolle/images/5/58/CVB_Taihou_Kai_156_Card.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20150519035633

"so if we based this on what JP call her, armored carrier"

Only in Japanese. They still call her an "aircraft carrier" in English. There's no reason why us calling her a CV would be wrong.

^"But I ask you, whats wrong with taking those hull classifications as basis and modifying it for the game use?"

Well it's because you're still basing it off them. Unless you're willing to completely overhaul it such that there's much less overlap, people will continue to complain. On top of that the loading page already uses the USN hull classifications.
