After reading the last koma, i wonder how low Shinano's luck will be 0 ?

Actually Taihou's ship design is OK, even with that enclosed hangar which still applied to the modern Japanese Heli carriers. If only she, and some other ships i.e. Shoukaku were not using unrefined oil from Tarakan (which has high level of naptha making the gas volatile, and salt which damage boilers).

But Shinano ? Her design is faulty from beginning, a ship which looks okay from outside but still under construction inside. Intercepted during transport mission and sunk on Japan waters. 0 luck ?
