Considering that 3-2 was Kiska Island, and Abukuma was the flagship during Operation Ke (evacuation of IJA personnel off Kiska), I think we had it coming. Just think of it as a post-AL/MI strategy, since before AL/MI in our world Kiska was being supplied primarily by DD. (Oboro got sunk sending supplies there, too.)
