I was re-reading this FAQ about the "number beside the planes" and what it says kind of surprised me:

"The capacity of the planes it can hold. Different slots have different capacity and will affect the performance of the carrier in the opening aerial combat phase. Generally it is recommended to place blue planes (torpedo bombers) on the higher count slots, and yellow (recon) or red (dive bomber) planes on the lower slots."

Leaving aside the fact that it doesn't even mention fighters does anyone see any reason why this should remain this way? It seems like it is setting new admirals up to bleed bauxite and, save the occasion where you are absolutely sure you don't need fighters (E.G. maps with no carriers), I can't see any time you'd want to put torpedo bombers into your big slot.

At the very least, shouldn't the general rule of thumb be that you put your best fighter in the highest slot?
