We all know that after the Marianas, the Kiro Butai was no longer a threat, not only because of the loss of experienced pilots, but also because of the extremely high attrition and Allied superiority. The Marianas disaster confirms this, especially when alerts were being issued at 50 miles, more than enough to trigger massive counterattacks... It's nice to think about 1-on-1 carrier battles, but if navies are going to be recreated, they would have to be done to the fullest extent.
