That one goes to historical note section, which should by all means put into collapsible section. I'd suggest something like this:

"For practical reasons coastal defence ships are identified as DE, but their corresponding type is not unanimously agreed in contemporary documents."

It's synthetic and pretty much close to the reality of the recent drama, I don't think we can unanimously agree why we're actually using DE rather than something else, for instance it's not the identification used in USN documents unlike what Archer88 proposed, I'd just leave it to something vague as "practical reasons".
